https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=258433 ------- Comment #6 from kern@sibbald.com 2007-06-01 03:26 MST ------- This major bug has been outstanding two months now, and it is still marked as NEW. Could you provide an estimate when you will release a new 10.2 kernel with this problem fixed? I saw a comment from someone at SuSE who asked why this was urgent, here is my response. I consider this a major problem, and for me it is not acceptable to be running on a git (10.3) kernel in order to debug my programs for several reasons: 1. The git kerneal is an alpha (or beta) kernel and not made to run on 10.2 2. For the above reason does not load correctly with armour probably because it needs new versions, but there is no procedure for doing this. 3. The kernel I am using 2.6.21-rc5-git13-2-default is not only alpha, but it is broken -- it does not handle opening USB ports correctly, reported in another bug (USB cameras can no longer connect) so I am forced to boot back and forth between kernels, one for debugging, one for accessing my camera. I really like your SuSE distro (switched to SuSE in Jan 2007), however this bug means your released kernel is badly broken for developers. I understand it is a pain for you guys to update kernels when you want to focus on 10.3, but if you don't quickly fix these kinds of major bugs I think you will find that some developers such as myself will move to another distro that gives a higher priority to these kinds of problems. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
