Package: kernel
Version: older than 2.6.22

We have four patches for AMD/ATI SB700, and we will full support SB700
until 2.6.23-rc1. The four patches have been accepted by kernel org and
the applied kernel version are listed as following:
1.SMBus device ID   2.6.23-rc1
2.IDE device ID     2.6.22
3.SATA device ID    2.6.22
4.Combined mode     2.6.22

Because the patch for SMBus device ID is sent after the merge window
for 2.6.22, and as a result it is queued for the next kernel version:
2.6.23. it will be merged in Linus' tree between 2.6.22 (final) and
2.6.23-rc1.

My request here is:
Which kernel version will be adopted in the next Debian(4.1?) release?
If it will use the linux kernel AFTER 2.6.22, then that's good and
please discard the rest part of this mail. 
Otherwise if it use the kernel older than 2.6.22, please apply the
attached four patches into it manually.

Thanks
Best Regards
Shane

hehe not sure if the versioning tracking recognizes that :)

nitpicking please ask such questions on the mailing list see
-> http://wiki.debian.org/DebianKernel
seems more appropriate than a bug. :)
 
anyway the final shipped version is not decided yet but will not
be frozen before next spring/summer so qualifies for > 2.6.22
thus closing the bug.

best regards
