hw-detect 1.80ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

hw-detect (1.80ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian.  Remaining changes:
    - Remove FireWire Ethernet support.
    - Register lp module on i386 and amd64.
    - Exit zero if you continue all the way through ethdetect's errors about
      having no network interfaces.
    - Register rtc module on amd64.
    - Drop priorities of a couple of ethdetect questions to medium.
    - On powerpc/ps3 systems, load ps3rom, ps3disk, and ps3_gelic, and add
      snd_ps3 to /etc/modules.
    - Install elfspe2 on Cell (powerpc/ps3 and powerpc/cell) platforms.
    - disk-detect.sh: Do not check the kernel command line for any option
      to enable dmraid support. If functional dmraid arrays are found, the
      user will be asked if they wish to activate them.
    - Make dmraid logging a bit neater.
    - 'dmraid -c -s' changed its output format; cope with both old and new.
    - Reinstate snd-powermac for i2s-a devices since apparently the lock-up
      has been fixed.
    - Remove dm-emc from the multipath modules, since it's gone since
      2.6.27.
    - Improve checks for dm-* drivers being present to avoid relying on them
      being built as modules.
    - Offer iSCSI targets for preseeding if partman-iscsi is available and
      no disk devices are found.
    - Stop installing acpi, acpid, and acpi-support-base if acpi is
      available.

hw-detect (1.80) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add -g/--guess option to archdetect to ask for heuristics that make it
    easier to bring up new boards, based on a patch from Michael Casadevall.
    See http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2010/08/msg00641.html for
    rationale.  Requires libdebian-installer4-dev (>= 0.76).

hw-detect (1.79) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Christian Perrier ]
  * Reviewed driver injection disks templates with the help
    of debian-l10n-english. Unjargonized and wordig aligned with
    other D-I templates. Moved strings to sublevel 3 as this template
    is used in some corner cases.
  * Add dependency on cdebconf-udeb for driver-injection-disk-detect
    udeb

hw-detect (1.78) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
  * Add support for Dell Driver Injection disk v1, an integrated flash
    media based solution for adding in drivers after OS launches.
    Patch from Mario Limonciello and Ubuntu (LP: #341526).  This
    add some untranslated strings the the .po files.
  * Install mouseemu on systems likely to have single-button mice
    (i.e.  non-desktop Macs LP: #251830), but not powerpc64 since it
    is said to cause an oops in the input layer.  Patch from Colin
    Watson and Ubuntu.
  * Depend on pciutils-udeb for lspci.  Patch from Colin Watson and
    Ubuntu.
  * Adjust code reloading modules in check-missing-firmware.sh to
    only reload once when a module need several firmware files.

hw-detect (1.77) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Frans Pop ]
  * check-missing-firmware: install loose firmware files in subdirectories
    if that's where the kernel expects them. Closes: #572785.

  [ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
  * Use discover-pkginstall to install hardware related packages
    automatically during installation (Closes: #577451).  Run it
    from pre-pkgsel to make sure a upgraded discover package is
    available.
  * Make sure check-missing-firmware follow symlinks and copy the
    content to make sure symlinked firmware files work too.
  * Move code checking for firmware in check-missing-firmware to a
    separate function, to allow it to be used several places.
  * Also look for firmware debs and udebs in the PXE initrd and
    on the CD media, in a firmware/ directory (Closes: #574116).
  * Add cross building support (Closes: #572369).  Patch from
    Hector Oron.
  * Run preinst script of firmware debs in case there is a license
    question there to accept, and do not activate firmware if the
    preinst script return non-zero exit code (Closes: #574158).

  [ Joey Hess ]
  * Remove myself from Uploaders.

hw-detect (1.76) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Joey Hess ]
  * check-missing-firmware: Try probing once for missing firmware before
    prompting for it to be provided.
  * Add new preseedable ethdetect/prompt_missing_firmware, which will
    be used by oldsys-preseed to avoid firmware prompting happening
    before network-console starts.

  [ Frans Pop ]
  * Queue pciutils for installation if the system has a pci bus.
  * Drop --no-recommends option for installation of acpi-related packages.
    Requires base-installer 1.105.

  * German (de.po) by Holger Wansing
  * Slovenian (sl.po) by Vanja Cvelbar

hw-detect (1.75) unstable; urgency=low

  * check-missing-firmware: not all drivers register themselves if firmware
    is missing; in that case fall back to determining the module using the
    device's modalias. Patch provided by Jérémy Bobbio. Closes: #562594.

  * Slovenian (sl.po) by Vanja Cvelbar

hw-detect (1.74) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Gaudenz Steinlin ]
  * The driver which turns the USB chip on the Openmoko phones into a network
    card is not automatically loaded by udev. This special code in hw-detect
    loads the needed kernel module.

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Exec ethdetect/disk-detect from their respective postinsts, saving a fork.
  * Upgrade to debhelper v7.

  [ Joey Hess ]
  * Fix firmware loading.
    Current udev+kernel no longer supports PHYSDEVDRIVER. Instead make
    firmware.agent log the DEVPATH, and check-missing-firmware can look
    up the module name using sysfs. Closes: #542282
  * Sync firmware.agent with udev, and make check-missing-firmware
    use /dev/.udev/firmware-missing/

  [ Ian Campbell ]
  * Do not present an error to the user if loading ide-generic fails.

  [ Frans Pop ]
  * Remove code to wait for initialization of megaraid_mbox driver. Should
    no longer be needed with current kernels.
  * Remove no longer needed Lintian override for missing Standards-Version
    field.
  * Always test for USB support using /sys/bus/usb. Closes: #534413.
  * Drop firmware.agent udev script; it's been included in udev-udeb since
    version 146-2. Closes: #552497.
  * hw-detect.sh: avoid pulling in console-{common,data} through console-tools
    when apt-installing acpid and acpi-support-base.
    Requires di-utils 1.73 and base-installer 1.104.
