Good. That was what I expected, since the 2.4.1 from that PPA contains the patch from post-2.4.1. What would be good news, is if we could revert the patch in question from that package and it would then work. >From browsing through the logs of the ubuntu -intel packages (linked to from the upstream bug report), it looks like the problematic patch came in through the script that starts with 22- (don't remember the name right now, it is located in debian/patches in the source package). What I'm not sure about is wheather disabling that patch or just changing it is the right thing to do. I will hopefully have time to look at it tomorrow. If you want to give it a try with disabling it, you can do that by commenting it out in the "series" file in the debian/patches directory (if I remember the file name correctly - it's the only file there which is not a patch). The way to go would be basically the same as when you built 2.7.1. If you don't get the 2.4.1 source package with apt-get source, you may download it (there are 3 files *orig.tar.gz, *.diff.gz and *.dsc) from the PPA page and use dpkg-source -x to unpack it the way apt-get source would do. If these instructions are too vague, you may wait until I have had the time to look closer into it. -- [i945G] Samsung TV not detected on VGA output (no screens) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/379157 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
