Description kfm 2005-05-18 16:55:57 UTC
With regard to patch #1344 in genpatches-base, it appears that a better patch has been devised by David S. Miller to rectify the issue. Please see the URL defined on this bug for the USENET thread discussing the issue. The patch has been adopted into Debian's tree already and I shall attach it here for perusal. Please consider updating genpatches-base accordingly.

Improved patch to fix sunsab serial console quirks

Lifted verbatim from debian's 2.6.11-5 patchset.

Also, the original name of the patch is: sunsab-uart-update-timeout.patch
Comment 3 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-19 04:02:51 UTC
Jeremy does this look ok? Its included in 2.6.12-rc4 (yay!)
Comment 4 Jeremy Huddleston (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-23 22:07:33 UTC
yeah, this fixes half of the sab problems, but there is still corruption which
is fixed by the patch currently in 12-pre patchset.  I'm fine leaving in the
current patch in .11 as .12 will be out soon enough...
Comment 5 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-31 16:18:45 UTC
1344 dropped for 2.6.12 releases
