Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686 Version: 2.4.27-6 Severity: normal
I upgraded from 'kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686_2.4.27-2_i386.deb' to 'kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686_2.4.27-6_i386.deb', after which my 56K external modem now tops off at about 1.5K a second, down from it's old 5.5K. When I downgrade to v2, the modem can do 5.5K again. I tested this twice (with no other changes) to make sure. Sure enough, downgrading the kernel seems to fix the modem, and upgrading it slows it down. If it matters, the modem's connected to '/dev/ttyS0'. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.27-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C) Versions of packages kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686 depends on: ii coreutils [fileutils] 5.2.1-2 The GNU core utilities ii fileutils 5.2.1-2 The GNU file management utilities ii initrd-tools 0.1.74 tools to create initrd image for p ii modutils 2.4.26-1.1 Linux module utilities -- no debconf information
