Title:
Jockey should pick sane defaults for free & description for unknown
modules
Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Version: 0.5.8-0ubuntu8
Right now if a modalias is placed in the handlers directory but both
the package and the kernel module are unknown, Jockey insists that it
can't operate on it.
This causes the following error to occur, preventing the default
kernel module handler from working properly:
DriverID for module %s does not refer '
'to a locally available module and does not
specify '
'free/description/package; ignoring
I would propose that if the free field is not defined, it should
default to False. If the description is not defined, it should just
use the package name or the short description from that package in the
apt-cache. If the package is not defined, the handler should indeed
fail.
