You mean the patch removing the debug message was not included? Mea culpa.
Will check it and build a new image if thats the case. I think the patch is
in Nicks kernel-patch package, wonder why it should not be included in the
kernel image... but since I do not have a clgen based card, I can not test
it.
Did you try to build a kernel yourself using the kernel-patch package?

Yes, no, yes. _This_ list is for debian related issues, ie precompiled
packages. Nick built the patch package, I built the image package for amiga.
Whats in the patch package is somewhat arbitrary. I think this patch should
be included in linux-m68k, or better the driver should be improved. If we
get patches for this, we (Nick) wil include it in th patch package probably.
But the development of kernel drivers takes place in the linux-m68k
mailinglist (see link on potato page or linux-m68k.org webpage).

You? You have a card, you can fix this, ie work on the driver.

I do not look on that page often, but the linux-m68k mailing list is quite
active.
