Hi, I just switched to Debian (Etch) with the 2.6.20 binary kernel from sid and root lvm encryption via the installer. Now, I have the problem that the scroll wheel of my bluetooth mouse does not work (/dev/input/mice does not produce any output on a wheel move, everything else works fine). I found the mh2 kernel patch that should address the problem and downloaded the sid 2.6.20 kernel sources, patched them and compiled the kernel.
Now I am stuck. The compiled kernel does not find the mh2 module in the old initrd file and I could not find the proper way to generate a new and working initrd file. (I hesitate installing the libc sid packages that the respective kernel header packages seemingly depend on.) What is the best way to get a kernel with the patch booting from the encrypted root (and maintain the patch on kernel updates)? Is there a step-by-step wiki around that I missed? Should I use something like an overlay for kernel patches / sid packages and how does this work in debian? Thanks in advance Martin (BTW. is there any reason, why the mh2 patch is not part of the debian unstable kernel?) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
