2.6.5 problems

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I fixed both the ticket 1002 problems and some others involving
mkpatched kernels.
Now I know what export-objs does (Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt is
an excellent reference).

I put a note on the download page that i2c only worked for 2.4 kernels.
Let's see if we get a lot of complaints - if not we can remove the 2.2
compatibility
stuff from i2c and sensors in the next release? And I put a note on the
home page.

I don't think that the problems are serious enough to do a fast 2.6.6
release.
I'm going to go ahead and update freshmeat.

** Note that the MC1066 update to adm1021 requires SENSORS_INSMOD_8 from
i2c-proc.h.
In other words, unless we work around it somehow (I don't see how) - the
2.6.6 lm_sensors release
will REQUIRE i2c-2.6.6.
Let's think about this some more, it will increase our support issues a
lot.
But we've been keeping our dependency on i2c-2.6.1 for quite a while,
maybe it was time anyway.
Albert, if you can include the i2c-proc.h diff along with the i2c patch
and get
it into kernel 2.4 that would help.
