Comment 11 for bug 1689886

Manoj, how do you recommend utilizing the PPA?

I downloaded the debian packages for linux-image and headers, used dpkg to install, and while it boots, many of the drivers are missing, so the test case cannot be executed. I attempted to go through DI, but pointing DI to the test PPA does not seem to install the correct kernel, and leaves the system in a non-bootable state.

Joseph,

Thanks for testing. Have you tested the kernel in the centriq test PPA with the patch applied? Or was it an upstream kernel? If you tested the kernel in centriq test PPA could you please post your test results here?

Thanks
Manoj

Jeff,

Could you please test the kernel in PPA https://launchpad.net/~centriq-team/+archive/ubuntu/test/ <%20https:/launchpad.net/~centriq-team/+archive/ubuntu/test/%20> that has Joeseph Chang's patch ipmi: Fix kernel panic at ipmi_ssif_thread() on a QDF2400 REP system and report your results? http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1689886 <%20http:/bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1689886%20>

When you report the test results please include the output of the working ipmi command.

Thanks
Manoj Iyer
