Or am i missing > something ? If modular-ide is the sole source of trouble here, then what worked in 2.6.14-4 and earlier? The bugreports seem to indicate that things broke in 2.6.14-5 that worked in 2.6.14-4. And it seems nothing related else than linux-2.6 changed then - not yaird and not kernel-package. It sounds like modular-ide is evil, but if using linux-2.6 changelog entries as evidense of that evil being the (whole) cause of this trouble, it seems natural to expect those entries to make sense. My worry is that perhaps things actually started _breaking_ with the drop of modular-ide. I am not claiming that modular-ide is good, but perhaps it kept together other broken stuff popping up when modular-ide was dropped? The reason I dare persist with these speculations is that I believe we _do_ have alternatives to weakening the yaird logic until certain that is not the case. (deliberately not repeating those here to avoid rebooting the discussion - please say so if interested in me clarifying) Of course if noone but me see a point here (no need to comment unless you _do_ see a point!) then I rest my case. - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEEY1Sn7DbMsAkQLgRAjZDAJ4gp5GWlfkBoVM7xG/6JYApVHcFjACbBcjk S9xZlnfskKFAKrA/o7jfSYI= =1uJF -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
