ok thanks marco. does anyone know what this is referring to? would it be the accept4 syscall as shown in dmitri's patch: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=68;filename=udev-182.patch;att=2;bug=648325 this is a long-standing issue, it would be good to have it sorted out. i had to track down a suitable replacement kernel plus the installation instructions, of course it's not a kernel from debian, and the recommended one of course wifi didn't work. i ended up here: http://www.spinifex.com.au/plugs/dphowtowificl.html l. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> Date: Wed, Feb 13, 2013 at 10:09 AM Subject: Re: Bug#648325: dreamplug breakage To: "luke.leighton" <luke.leighton@gmail.com>, 648325@bugs.debian.org Cc: Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> On Feb 13, "luke.leighton" <luke.leighton@gmail.com> wrote: > cut it, because even if they "solved" the problem by "fixing" the > kernel it would still not actually result in anyone making the > immediate decision to upgrade the kernel on their embedded devices. This is why the ARM porters need to tell me which kernel version has the syscall so I can make udev refuse to install if it is not present (as usual). -- ciao, Marco
