Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.35-1~experimental.2
Severity: wishlist
hi,
i'd like to request that the PPS client modules be enabled:
$ grep CONFIG_PPS_CLIENT /boot/config-2.6.35-trunk-amd64
# CONFIG_PPS_CLIENT_KTIMER is not set
# CONFIG_PPS_CLIENT_LDISC is not set
$
the current linux-image packages ship with CONFIG_PPS=m set, but
unfortunately this is a bit useless without the client modules as well:
config PPS_CLIENT_KTIMER
tristate "Kernel timer client (Testing client, use for debug)"
help
If you say yes here you get support for a PPS debugging client
which uses a kernel timer to generate the PPS signal.
This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module
will be called pps-ktimer.
config PPS_CLIENT_LDISC
tristate "PPS line discipline"
depends on PPS
help
If you say yes here you get support for a PPS source connected
with the CD (Carrier Detect) pin of your serial port.
PPS_CLIENT_LDISC in particular is needed if you want to attach a
stratum-0 NTP time source (GPS with pulse-per-second line attached to
the CD pin) to a debian host, e.g.:
http://time.qnan.org/
http://wiki.enneenne.com/index.php/LinuxPPS_installation
an almost identical bug was reported in the fedora bugzilla, btw:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=619392
thanks!

I have not enabled this as it's a debug option only.

I enabled this as a module in the above version.
