Bug#480195: linux-image-2.6: Please include the io_ti module in the debian kernel

["Karl O. Pinc" <kop@meme.com>]

Package: linux-image-2.6
Severity: wishlist

Please include the io_ti module (drivers/usb/serial), .config
symbol name CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_EDGEPORT_TI in the default Debian
kernel.  It's part of the stock linux.org kernel.

I've an Edgeport/4 (4 port) and an Edgeport/416 (16 port)
serial RS-232 to USB serial converter.  I use them to
to access machine consoles attached to a serial port.
Very handy to have remote console access, logging, boot
monitoring, etc.  It's annoying to have to rebuild
a custom kernel to keep up with security patches,
something that's necessary on a machine with access
to so many consoles.

Thank you.

Note, this bug report generated from a machine running
a custom kernel.  The rest of the machine runs
etchnhalf.
