Bug#297794: kernel-image-2.4.27-powerpc: postinst almost completely missing, breaks installer

Ah, and you told me you tested the package on monday :/

Oh well, fix should be incoming today. I reject the severity of critical here
though, as this problem will only affect unsupported installation path (namely
oldworld floppy installs with miboot, which is non-free and thus not
supported, and disactivated in sarge d-i).

Also, the patch you supplied is broken and untested, as it reverts an
important fix in the current svn.

Furthermore, since the package escaped NEW yesterday, and i will be able to
upload a fixed version less than 24h of being made aware of it, i certainly
reject the accusation of this problem delaying the rc3 schedule by a week,
and fint it really insulting.

And finally, there is *NO* need to rebuild the 2.4.27 kernel .udebs for this,
as the only difference between 2.4.27-3 and 2.4.27-4  will be the addition of
the post/pre/rm/inst scripts, which are removed for the udebs. This mean there
is absolutely no difference in the source code used to generate those .udebs,
and anyone accusing me of GPL violation because of it really has no
understanding of the GPL.

Really pissed by the way i am threated by the d-i and RM guys about this.

Bug#298000: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686: airo driver fail to work with AIRONET Wireless Communications PC4800 (rev 01) [PCI 14b9:0350]

2005-03-03 Thread Petter Reinholdtsen

Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686
Version: 2.6.8-13
Severity: important

I recently tried to upgrade the kernel of one of my machines from
2.4.27 to 2.6.8.  Most of the upgrade when fine, but the network card
in the machine didn't work with the new kernel.  The machine have
several network cards, but the one in use is a WLAN card (PCI).
discover recognized it and loaded the airo module for it, and the airo
module recognized the card and claimed everything was just fine.

These are the relevant lspci (-n) lines:

  :00:0e.0 Network controller: AIRONET Wireless Communications
PC4800 (rev 01)
  :00:0e.0 0280: 14b9:0350 (rev 01)

But, when dhclient tried to get an IP address, no replies from the
DHCP server was detected.  The stats from ifconfig reported lots of
'misc' errors on the TX line, but no pakcages transmitted.

When the module was loaded, these messages were reported to syslog:

  kernel: PCI: Setting latency timer of device :00:0e.0 to 64
  kernel: airo: cmd= 111
  kernel: airo: status= 7f11
  kernel: airo: Rsp0= 2
  kernel: airo: Rsp1= 0
  kernel: airo: Rsp2= 0
  kernel: airo: Doing fast bap_reads
  kernel: airo: MAC enabled eth0 0:40:96:3a:64:bb
  kernel: airo:  Finished probing for PCI adapters

After trying several times to rmmod and modprobe the airo module, and
running dhclient on the interface, the kernel started to send out lots
of messages like this:

  kernel: airo: Bad size 58569
  kernel: airo: Bad size 6106
  kernel: airo: Bad size 26500
  kernel: airo: Bad size 58570
  kernel: airo: Bad size 6107
  kernel: airo: Bad size 58571
  kernel: airo: Bad size 58572

In between, it sent a few messages like this:

  kernel: airo: BAP error 4000 0

At this point, I decided to reboot back to the 2.4 kernel.  How can I
get the 2.6 kernel working with this PCI card?  Without a working
network driver for the WLAN card, I can't use the machine, so I have
to stick with the 2.4 kernel for now.

Bug#290398: usb_storage issue: A (not so) funny way to (or to not) delete files.

2005-03-03 Thread Baptiste Carvello
Hi,
Daniele P. wrote:
 Subject: usb_storage issue: A (not so) funny way to (or to not) 
delete  files.
 Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-1-386
 Version: 2.6.8-10
 Severity: grave

This seems excessive to me, see below.
 2) Usb storage device physically set to read only

 3) Mount it as rw (mount -o rw /dev/sdc1 /media/usb), file system is 
vfat.

 4) mv my_favorite_file /media/usb  echo success
success

 5) And there was much rejoicing (!)

All right, the correct behavior would be that the kernel warns you and 
then mounts the device read-only instead of rw, as the mdk kernel does. 
The code for doing this is set up by configuring 
CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_RW_DETECT before compiling the kernel.

However, this code is considered experimental upstream, and has been 
disabled in debian in kernel-image-2.6.8-i386 version 2.6.8-4 and later, 
because it was believed this would help with bug #268184. In the end, it 
turns out that bug #268184 is caused by something else, so unless I 
missed some info, CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_RW_DETECT could be safely reenabled.

You can check if you get the correct behavior with a kernel where 
CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_RW_DETECT is enabled (for example 
http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2004/10/09/debian/pool/main/k/kernel-image-2.6.8-i386/kernel-image-2.6.8-1-386_2.6.8-3_i386.deb 

or by compiling your own).
[ note for the maintainer: according to the kernel doc, hardware failing 
with CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_RW_DETECT should be reported to upstream 
([EMAIL PROTECTED]), so that the check can be 
selectively disabled for them. I think they are added to the file 
linux/drivers/usb/storage/unusual_devs.h ]

IMHO the grave severity is a bit overblown for this bug. Sure, it causes 
data loss, but only indirectly and through a mistake of the user. The 
same behavior has existed all along the 2.4 kernel series, and people 
live with that.

Also, having to recompile the kernels at this point of time could 
severely hinder the release, which does not seem worth it. If you agree 
with this analysis, please downgrade the bug to important, and/or 
reassign it to kernel-image-2.6.10-1-386 so that it can be taken care of 
in unstable without hindering Sarge.

Thanks,
BC
