Quoting Ben Hutchings (b...@decadent.org.uk): reassign 595914 kernel-wedge thanks The BCM57780 needs a separate PHY driver module. It looks like these aren't currently packaged in d-i. You should include kernel/drivers/net/phy/*.ko in an appropriate package, presumably nic-extra-modules-*. Thanks for the complete analysis that well completes my original wild guess analysis, Ben. Otavio, you're the most familiar person with kernel-wedge. I suspect that the above suggestion is trivial to apply when one exactly knows what to do..:-) signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Ben? The reason I contacted you was precisely because it went into 2.6.33.2, e.g. was already accepted into a -stalbe release. I didn't expect it to be such an issue. That's not likely if people spread FUD about the backlog patches! Dave, did you explicitly exclude these patches from 2.6.32 when you submitted them to stable, or is it just that 5534979 udp: use limited socket backlog depends on a1ab77f ipv6: udp: Optimise multicast reception? The former patch doesn't look too hard to backport to 2.6.32 (see below). Anybody? We've currently rolled out our own 2.6.32 kernel with these fixes applied, and they indeed fix a system crash under our nfs-load. What else can I do to get these fixes into either Debians' 2.6.32 or Greg's stable 2.6.32 series? [...] These patches will be included in Debian's version 2.6.32-22. We'll see how that goes. I owe you a few beers. Thanks a million! Ben. Lukas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#534422: Still memory corruption problems
Dear Kernel maintainers, I have been having on-and-off memory corruption problems after hibernate on my Thinkpad X200 (with intel graphics). The symptoms are similar to those described in this report and the others: sometimes a hang after hibernate (after loading the resume image, either before or after X resumes), sometimes segfaults on any new process. I attach an oops that was caught in syslog, but often nothing appears in the logs. After reading this bug report, I had hoped these problems were resolved, but they sadly do not seem to be (neither for 2.6.32-5-amd64 (Debian 2.6.32-21) currently in testing, nor for 2.6.35-trunk-amd64 (Debian 2.6.35-1~experimental.3) currently in experimental). I realise this may not be the most helpful report; please let me know if different information would be useful.

Sending speakup upstream
I'm a member of the Debian Linux kernel team. We have a general policy that any features added to the kernel package should already have been accepted for inclusion in some later upstream version of Linux. If a driver has not been accepted then it should be packaged separately. We have made an exception for speakup so that it can be used during installation, but we do not want to carry this patch indefinitely. I talked to Greg Kroah-Hartman about this briefly and he would welcome a submission of speakup for inclusion under 'staging'. Is there any reason not to do this?
