Bug#279212: ddetect: Doesn't install apm_emu on PowerBooks



Package: ddetect
Version: d-i pre-RC2
Severity: normal

After installing an Apple laptop with RC2 I noticed that the apm_emu
module had not been installed.  While not essential to the functioning
of the system the APM interface is used by several tools like the GNOME
battery monitor applet and therefore rather useful on laptops.

Colin Watson suggested this fix:

13:09 < Kamion> broonie: hm, I have a patch to ddetect to do that ...
13:09 < Kamion> +       elif [ "$name" = via-pmu ]; then
13:09 < Kamion> +               # APM emulation is useful for some applications, such as the
		13:09 < Kamion> +               # GNOME battery applet.
		13:09 < Kamion> +               register-module apm_emu
		13:09 < Kamion> stick that at the end of discover-mac-io
