Bug#434974: lpc-mode: please prefer emacs22

2007-07-30 Thread Vivek Dasmohapatra
I will have to release a new version of lpc mode, the current version won't work in emacs22 because the underlying cc-mode infrastructure has changed quite a lot (and there was a bug in the new cc-mode, until semi-recently, which prevented external modes like lpc mode from compiling). Now that

Bug#403149: lpc-mode: Please add a depends against emacsen or emacs-snapshot

2006-12-20 Thread Vivek Dasmohapatra
lpc-mode in its current form doesn't work in emacs22, or didn't last time I checked, so the dependency (as it stands) is correct. If you've tried lpc-mode in emacs22 and it _does_ work, let me know - I have some notes here somewhere about what needs to be done to update it but I haven't one

Thanks, looks like the NMU was incomplete. I will try and get a fixed package out tonight or tomorrow. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Bug#308946: kernel-source-2.6.11: megaraid data corruption on amd64/em64t

2005-05-13 Thread Vivek Dasmohapatra
Package: kernel-source-2.6.11 Version: 2.6.11-3 Severity: important When running an em64t kernel with either the megaraid driver or the newer megaraid_mbox driver, and the machine in question has 4GiB of memory, reads/writes past the 130GiB mark (approximately) of a partition on the logical

Bug#305977: more caveats for megaraid_mbox users

2005-05-06 Thread Vivek Dasmohapatra
Scratch the whole 2.6.11 good thing. Apparently, 4GiB of memory instead of 2GiB means massive corruption of data written to/read from the scsi devices presented to the OS by the SATA raid card. Basically, with 2GiB of memory, everything is peachy. With 4GiB, anything written past a certain point

Bug#306816: dbishell (alleged FTBFS)

2005-04-29 Thread Vivek Dasmohapatra
I should further note that TIOCSPTLCK: Invalid Argument is not the cause of dbishell failing to build: this is a warning to let me/the user know that that ioctl numbers shipped with debian's perl are still broken (see #190887). This is worked around in the makefile. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to

Bug#305977: additional information/caveats for the amd64 installer

2005-04-23 Thread Vivek Dasmohapatra
A few things that came up during an install recently: The p4-em64t-smp kernels can panic on contact with a megaraid controller. One machine here worked fine, the other panicked every time. You can get around this by choosing go back at some point and setting the debconf question priority to low,

Bug#255731: bug isolated (libterm-readline-perl-perl at fault)

2005-03-24 Thread Vivek Dasmohapatra
Ok, I finally stumbled on the answer when somebody reported a problem on another system. Term::ReadLine::Perl ignores the filehandle passed to it when calling Term::ReadKey, so all the pty magic in the makefile is ignored, as trl-perl just attempts to call ioctls on STDIN instead of the
