Thanks.
Is it a feature that the linux-firmware package doesn't have the upstream kernel version in its name? $ make deb-pkg (...) dpkg-deb: building package linux-firmware-image' in ../linux-firmware-image_2.6.31.4.20091026.4_all.deb'. dpkg-deb: building package linux-image-2.6.31.4-zgws1' in ../linux-image-2.6.31.4-zgws1_2.6.31.4.20091026.4_i386.deb'. I could imagine that, a driver in kernel 2.6.x would need different firmware than the same driver in kernel 2.6.y, where it would be very helpful to have multiple firmware packages installed. Does the firmware infrastructure cater for this need? Greetings Marc -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Marc Haber | "I don't trust Computers.
