Package: linux-image-loongson-2f
Severity: wishlist

Currently the kernel is missing various bits of functionality, such as webcam
operation and battery monitoring. Googling, I found this functionality is
enabled if a Linux Libre kernel is used. However I have not been able to verify
this, since the kernel does not install on my machine.

I kindly request that the patches available at the following URL be included in
the Debian package:
http://www.fsfla.org/download/linux-libre/lemote/gnewsense/pool/



-- System Information:
Debian Release: wheezy/sid
  APT prefers testing

Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-loongson-2f
Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968)

Closing this one as well.

If there are some important bits missing from squeeze then we can think
about backporting them, but someone has to identify what they are.

This sentence contradicts itself - no actually it doesn't.
