forwarded 386972 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7159 thanks
Seems the message below never went out, likely because the SMTP server at work refused to forward a message from @debian.org. Sorry about the delay. As it turns out, booting with "acpi=off" solves this network problem. Is this resolution satisfactory to the Debian kernel team? Or should Debian kernels be able to boot on old (non-ACPI) hardware without boot-time options? Put differently, is there a way to config around this, so it boots on both ACPI and non-ACPI machines without boot-time options? -Adam On Thu, 2006-09-14 at 14:09 -0400, Adam C Powell IV wrote: > forwarded 386972 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7159 > thanks > > On Thu, 2006-09-14 at 08:14 +0200, maximilian attems wrote: > > On Wed, Sep 13, 2006 at 11:52:38PM +0200, Jonas Smedegaard wrote: > > > On Wed, 13 Sep 2006 23:11:23 +0200 maximilian attems wrote: > > > > > > > we don't support 2.6.16 anymore, no need to play around, > > > > thus remerging the bugs. > > > > please be so kind to provide upstream bug report as follow up > > > > > > If no longer supported, then the correct thing to do is either to > > > abandon the package (to allow others to possibly adopt it and continue > > > its support in Debian), or request its removal from the archive. > > > > > > Not supporting a package is no excuse for avoiding bugreports against > > > it! > > > > ahh i love your constructive interaction in bug reports. > > what matters is that the etch targeted kernel seems still affected. > > 2.6.16 is kept in the archive for beta 3 of d-i. > > Then tag it 'wontfix', and let it die when the package is removed. > Sorry, you need a better explanation than that.
