159 thanks go to Nicolas Det for providing the patch.
160 * [powerpc] Modified a couple of configuration options for the powerpc64

162 * [powerpc] Added powerpc-miboot flavour to use exclusively with oldworld
163 powermac miboot floppies for debian-installer.
164 * [powerpc] Checked upgraded version of the apus patches, separated them in
165 a part which is safe to apply, and one which needs checking, and is thus
166 not applied yet.
167
168 [ Kyle McMartin ]
169 * [hppa] Update hppa.diff to 2.6.13-pa4.
170 * [hppa] Add space register fix to pacache.S to hppa.diff.
171
172 [ dann frazier ]

175 * [ia64] Workaround #325070 until upstream works out an acceptable solution.
176 This bug breaks module loading on non-SMP ia64 kernels. The workaround
177 is to temporarily use an SMP config for the non-SMP kernels. (Note that
178 John Wright is running benchmarks to determine the overhead of running
179 an SMP kernel on UP systems to help decide if this should be a
180 permanent change).
181 * [ia64] Update arch/ia64/config for 2.6.13

445 - Added powerpc-mkvmlinuz-support patch which allows, together with
446 kernel-package 9.0002 to add mkvmlinuz support to hand built packages.
447 - Removed powerpc-ppc64-ibmvscsi.patch, FTBFS, and Christoph doesn't like
448 it and thinks it is not needed.
449 - Disabled swim3 on powerpc-smp, FTBFS.
450 - Disabled software-suspend on powerpc-smp, FTBFS, amd64/i386 only smp code.
451 - Rediffed and readded the G4 L2 hardware flush assist patch from Jacob Pan.

454 * [sparc]
455 - Drop sparc32 flavour for now. sparc32 kernel is currently in the
456 category "too buggy for us to support". In spite of numerous efforts
457 I still see occasional random filesystem corruptions in my tests.
458 That does NOT mean that we are dropping sparc32 support, we will
459 work with upstream trying to solve these problems for the next
460 kernel release. Those interested in helping/testing are encouraged
461 to subscribe to debian-sparc mailing list.

464 * [alpha]
465 - Renamed resulting binary packages for alpha, kernel-image-x.y.z-generic
466 wasn't a generic kernel, it was a generic kernel for alpha machines, so
467 we're now using linux-image-x.y.z-alpha-generic (and of course, the same
468 change for the smp kernel-image). This change was postponed after the
469 sarge release. (closes: #260003)

472 * [amd64]
473 - Now using the default compiler (gcc-4.0), thus we get rid of the
474 annoying MAKEFLAGS="CC=gcc-3.4" make-kpkg... invocation for third-party
475 modules.
476 This release lacks 64bit kernels for i386 userland; support will be
477 added in a later release as soon as the toolchain has stabilized again.
