The road to Backup Manager 0.7.7

March 16, 2008 at 20:51:19 · Filed under Debian, backup-manager

Dear lazyweb, this sunday afternoon, I opened BackupManager’s Bugzilla and started squashing bugs. There was 54 bugs opened that requested a review. 15 of them are now tagged “pending” (meaning they’re closed in SVN and will be shiped with the next release).

All of the patches submited - that made sense - were applied, thanks to all the reporters for their help, by the way.

So, fear a new release soon…

Patch for building driver ieee80211 v1.2.18 with Linux Kernel 2.6.24

March 15, 2008 at 16:50:17 · Filed under Debian, General

If you’re like me and want to build the ieee80211 driver for your debian box with the last kernel available in sid (2.6.24), you’ll have to apply that patch to the sources.

As you can see, a couple of changes occured in the Kernel API and that blocks the build.

Hope that can help.
