I have gone through and turned this off for everything except mips,
for which I am not sure about the structure of the package.

Apoliges in advance to kerenel-image maintainers if
I broke anything.

Horms - in general you are welcome to modify the ia64 configs; though
you can also just dup a bug & I can handle it before my next upload.
I've gone ahead and fixed this one in svn.

fyi, the current state of the art for ia64 config handling is to just
modify the itanium config & execute the sync_configs target in
debian/rules.

Ah, i also have some second-thoughts about this, since we cannot know exactly
how the user is loading the modules. I will disable it in the ppc 2.6.9/2.6.10
kernels.

According to Paul van Tilburg, in Bug#284952 this does not help.
Though he didn't expand on why.

I wonder about this, would it not be enough to blacklist the UB generated
modules in hotplug and/or discover ?

The merge thing doesn't work well with the way we
have multiple source packages for the kernel. 

It seems that this problem actually effects the following
source packages.

kernel-image-2.6.10-alpha-2.6.10
kernel-image-2.6.10-ia64-2.6.10
kernel-image-2.6.9-amd64-2.6.9
kernel-image-2.6.9-ia64-2.6.9
kernel-image-2.6.9-sparc-2.6.9
kernel-patch-2.6.10-mips-2.6.10
kernel-patch-powerpc-2.6.10-2.6.10
kernel-patch-powerpc-2.6.9-2.6.9

Would it be of value to duplicate, say #283852,
assign one copy to each of these source packages,
and then merge #283852 with #284952 on one package,
say kernel-patch-powerpc-2.6.9-2.6.9, where
at one of the bugs originated.

Also, sould I go through and fix the config
in svn, even though I can't build for any of these
architectures?

Can someone merge this bug with #283852, plz? I'm unsure which of them
to reassign.

No, please turn it off.  I hadn't realized it's turned on either.

Bug#284952: The USB block device should be disabled

2005-01-16 Thread Paul van Tilburg
Package: kernel-image-2.6.9-powerpc
Version: 2.6.9-4
Followup-For: Bug #284952

The USB block device is known to be experimental and buggy.
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UB=m should be set to 'n'.

Since the ub modules takes preference of the old, though working
usb-storage, hotplug loads ub.  Blacklisting ub doesn't help, loading
usb-storage doesn't work either.
I really would like for UB to be disable until proven reasonably stable.
