2006-05-27 01:20:07 StefanPotyra sl-modem: statusexplanation Thanks for your help... I put new versions of sl-modem-source and sl-modem-daemon to http://tiber.tauware.de/~sistpoty/sl-modem/ Could you please test, if this version will work? (I don't have the hardware, so I cannot test these packages). I also filed an uvf-exception, if everything is fine, there is still a chance of getting this into dapper. Thx in advance, Stefan.

2006-05-28 16:43:50 StefanPotyra sl-modem: statusexplanation Thanks for checking. sl-modem (2.9.10+2.9.9d+e-pre2-5build1) dapper; urgency=low . * The weird version number release... this is 2.9.9d+e-pre2-5 from debian/unstable (closes: lp#31640). * UVF-exception: closes: lp#46851. . sl-modem (2.9.9d+e-pre2-5) unstable; urgency=low . * Fix for module compilation with 2.6.16, condition around line drivers/st7554.c:1160 (closes: #358267) . sl-modem (2.9.9d+e-pre2-4) unstable; urgency=medium . * replaced amrmo_init.c with the version from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/slmodem-2.9.11-20051101.tar.gz which has basically the superset of our changes (plus two additional modem IDs) but zeroes out the class* method calls since they are "protected" by GPL-enforcing kernel macros now (closes: #354216) * the above change effectively disables the udev functionality. Send your complaints to kernel developers if you need it. Or suggest a better solution. For now, a oneliner in /etc/modprobe.d/sl-modem-daemon.modutils creates /dev/slamr0. * workaround to fix device files that got the wrong owner (660 instead of root) during the major number transition in July 2005 . sl-modem (2.9.9d+e-pre2-3) unstable; urgency=medium . * changed NAME setting for slusb in udev rules * fixed slamr class_device_create call (closes: #349305), thanks to Gasper Zejn et al. . sl-modem (2.9.9d+e-pre2-2) unstable; urgency=low . * added helper module from http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/smartlink/ungrab-winmodem.tar.gz to tell the kernel to keep away from unsupported PCI id numbers, installed with slamr and pre-installed via modprobe.d script . sl-modem (2.9.9d+e-pre2-1) unstable; urgency=low . * New upstream pre-release (closes: #327588) * added sv.po from Daniel Nylander (closes: #330436) * slmodemd.1 manpage from Erik Schanze (closes: #335369) * defining URB_ASYNC_UNLINK if not set, needed by recent kernels * applied patch for class/simple_class transition from Gentoo lists with some fixes (closes: #325799) * changed the MODULE_LICENSE string to "Dual BSD/GPL" since the license is actually a BSD license clone (closes: #327545) * not including the old hotplug script, merged its code into the init script and added an udev rules file to run it. Needs real testing with a Smartlink USB modem which I do not have (closes: #338740) * disabled the "PCI device grabbing warning" code which caused OOpses on 2.6.15 . sl-modem (2.9.9d-7) unstable; urgency=low . * added alternative debconf-2.0 dependency * http://dev.gentoo.org/~genstef/files/slmodem-class-simple-to-class.diff added with few modifications though does not solve #325799 yet * added patch http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/archive-fifth/msg02217.html which AFAICS basically ignores the PCI ID collision caused by the kernel source bugs #303844 and #322028 (closes: #321061). Should be fixed in the kernel, though.

2006-06-07 21:07:54 StefanPotyra sl-modem: statusexplanation Thanks for your comments, Andre. I'm reopening this bug, since the kernel module still seems to make problems with the dapper kernel. I'm also reassigning to motu, since I currently don't have much time, so I hope someone else wants to jump in. Cheers, Stefan
