2012-10-18 15:49:18 Michael Farrell summary Regression: several kernel modules now missing in 12.10 3.1.0-4-ac100 kernel compared to 12.04 3.0.27-1 kernel Regression: several kernel modules now missing in 12.10 3.1.0-6-ac100 kernel compared to 12.04 3.0.27-1 kernel
2012-10-18 15:49:55 Michael Farrell description The kernel included with the AC100 12.10 Ubuntu release includes less kernel modules than the 12.04 version did. I've dumped the kernel configurations for both for comparison. In particular, I notice that many USB devices no longer have kernel modules built, including: * gspca-supported webcams * ax8817x usb ethernet adapters (used in Apple's USB ethernet adapter) * usb audio devices (snd-usb-audio) Many of the netfilter modules are also no longer available. I'm not saying "go back to the old config" because there are a number of things that are no longer built that makes sense, eg: support for many x86 PC PS/2 trackpads.
