Package: afbinit
Version: 1.0-1.1
Severity: important
Hi,
I have a machine with an Elite3D card. Recently I tried using xorg on
it, and found that afbinit init script does not load the microcode on
boot. It relies on encountering 'Elite' string in dmesg output as an
indication that the microcode must be loaded. Latest kernels do not
contain this string, so it exits silently. The simple attached patch
works on my box.
Ben, I would like to ask for your permission to become a comaintainer
of afbinit in Debian. Then I could upload this fix, and sync with
Ubuntu.
Best regards,
