Hi Ben, hi Jonathan! After several tries and 5 hours of compiling, I am sad, to tell you, the patch, Ben sent me, is not working.
Just before you take work into a new patch, let me first try kernel-3.4, which might be also possible to be released into next debian stable. Ben told so. I tested 3.1, 3.2, 3,5 and 3.6, but NOT 3.4! So maybe 3.4 might work as wished, then no other action has to be done - just release debian with 3.4! However, if kernel-3.2 shall be in next release, I am willing to test it for you. Maybe it will be easier, if you send me a precompiled module, which I then will test here. Please let me explain: I am not too lazy to compile, but my system is not good prepared for it. The main problem is, my /usr partition is too small. It has only 20G, so kernel building breaks, with "no space left on device". I built the kernel now on my older 64-bit-machine, which has only 512 MB RAM and is rather slow. It is not possible for me, to increase /usr (i.e. with gparted) without data loss, for it is ecrypted with luks. This just a little bit of information, why I am not so fast with the kernel building. All machines I am using (my 64-bit notebook, the 64-bit desktop-pc, my netbook and so on) are mostly permanently needed for my work, so they should not be killed somehow. I am happy, when they are working as wished! However, as I said, I am happy, when I can help, but results may be last a little longer as expected due to my "weired" environment.
