virtualbox-ose modules, yet again
Hi, with a new vbox major version out people again start bugging us about the not-yet-existing modules package. As a vbox user/maintainer I have to rebuild the modules for a new vbox version as well as for a new kernel version so I wouldn't mind uploading it too, meaning we will get a lot bug reports less than with the current setup that rebuilds the vbox module package with lme. The last time I brought up this topic the discussion stopped somewhere in between, so I'd like to bring this up again and settle it for good. A test package is available in experimental albeit only having a 2.6.26 version as this was the actual kernel when vbox2 went from experimental to sid. What do you guys think?

unification filesystems -- packaging aufs2, etc.
Hi everyone,
I would like to remove aufs from Debian soon, as it is not maintained
upstream anymore. But before this can happen, we have to find an
alternative which provides a reasonable feature set and comparable
performance.
This email is sent to the debian-kernel team for advice on the
kernel-based solutions and to the debian-live team as the most
important user. I also CCed the maintainers of the userspace
filesystems.
Why remove aufs1?
-
The last update to aufs1 is from January 2009. It has since been
replaced by aufs2. I don't want to maintain a whole filesystem
without any kind of upstream.
Alternatives: Kernelspace filesystems
-
There are two candidates: Unionfs2 and Aufs2. The problem with both
filesystems is that they require patches to the kernel, whereas aufs2
seems to be safer as it requires only new exports to be added.
There is also a new technology called union-mount, but I don't know
how mature this solution is.
None of these filesystems are packaged yet. If we were to decide for
kernel-based unification, one of those has to be packaged and the
kernel team has to accept patches to make this work.
I have attached the kernel patches needed for each filesystem, so
they can be reviewed. The Unionfs patch can be reduced to export
do_splice_{from,to} (without renaming to vfs_splice_{from,to}),
exporting security_inode_permission and the change to
fsstack_copy_inode_size(). The aufs patch is larger, but has the
benefit of only adding new exports without changing existing
functions.
Alternatives: Userspace filesystems
---
There are also userspace alternatives. Debian currently provides
unionfs-fuse, packaged by Bernd Schubert bernd.schub...@fastmail.fm.
Another alternative seems to be mhddfs, packaged by
Dmitry E. Oboukhov un...@debian.org.
Proposal
-
It seems to be the best idea to use unionfs-fuse for now (like Ubuntu)
until a new kernel-based solution has been packaged. It may also be a
good idea to coordinate this with the Ubuntu developers, so both distros
can use the same method of filesystem unification.
1. The Debian Live project adds support for unionfs-fuse.
2. A new filesystem will be packaged (unionfs2 OR aufs2).
3. aufs will be removed from unstable (or be replaced by
aufs2 under the same name).
Regards,
Julian Andres Klode

Bug#535997: Can not assign arbitrary modifiers to the keyboard leds
Package: linux-latest-2.6 Severity: wishlist Hi! The keyboard driver of Linux supports several modifiers: shift, altgr, control, alt, shiftl, shiftr, ctrll, ctrlr and capsshift. Due to some limitations of the method CapsLock is implemented in the kernel, for several languages it is necessary some other modifier to be used instead of CapsLock. For example console-setup often uses ctrll instead of capslock and the whole purpose of capsshift is to be used as a replacement for capslock. Unfortunately currently it is impossible to tell the kernel to display the state of the ctrll or capsshift modifier with the CapsLock led. As a result the CapsLock led doesn't work for keyboard layouts that can not use the CapsLock modifier. A related bug to this one is #514464.

Sorry that I have to delay things a little. Have you been able to reproduce the problem with more recent kernel versions? Cheers, Moritz Hi Moritz, after much delay (I'm sorry, I'm drowning in work) and a new batch of ram chips (which greatly improved the stability of the machine in question) I managed to install the new 2.6.30 kernel from backports on the machine, and the display is fine. Whatever seems to have caused the trouble seems to be fixed upstream... The stock 2.6.26 kernel that comes with lenny still shows the strange behaviour. I hope these tests help. I'm at CERN for the rest of the week (the machine is here in Heidelberg), so if you need anything tested, please let me know, this should be much easier to do now that I haven't seen any crashes on the machine for over three weeks. Cheers, and thanks for the patience, Manuel -- Homepage: http://www.hinterbergen.de/mala OpenPGP: 0xA330353E (DSA) or 0xD87D188C (RSA) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#536050: firmware-bnx2: Include 5708 and 5716 in package description
Package: firmware-bnx2 Version: 0.17 Severity: minor Tags: patch Hi, The bnx2 driver supports the Broadcom 5706, 5708, 5709 and 5716 chipsets. Only 5706 and 5709 are mentioned in the firmware-bnx2 package description at this time. Attached is a patch to include 5708 and 5716 in the description. This also corrects the descriptions (e.g. version unknown) of firmware for the 2.6.30 kernel.
