Yes, I don't plan on cramming 2.0.34 down anyone's throat. Not that
it's even my decision. ;)
OTOH, there's a lot of interest in getting 2.0.34 into hamm; there's
also the need to get hamm out quickly (a greater need IMHO). In
short, I wouldn't want to hold up hamm release to wait for 2.0.34.
Anyhow, I'm going to do an NMU upload of pcmcia-modules for 2.0.34 if
I can get it working and tested for me at least, unless the pcmcia
maintainer gets it going first. This is just to get it out for
broader testing so we can evaluate whether 2.0.34 causes more problems
than it's going to solve.
Yann, please keep us here at <debian-testing> informed on any
resolution, followups, confirmation, or general status on this linux
2.0.34 bug.
