Why is priority low and severity medium on this ticket?!? G5 is currently broken without this fix!!! I have just applied the patch from ozlabs and my G5 is bootable again all of a sudden! Please include this fix in one of the next kernel RPMs ASAP!! This should be high priority and severity. Fedora 12 has decided to expend no more effort on 64-bit PowerPC (although major pieces still do[will] work), and in the next release Fedora 13 even 32-bit PowerPC no longer will be a primary architecture. There just aren't enough Fedora users on such boxes. [S390 and its variants are treated distinct from PowerPC, and of course Red Hat and it products are distinct from Fedora Project.] Re: Fedora 12 has decided to expend no more effort on 64-bit PowerPC Be that as it may, this bug was introduced to Fedora 11 within the past two weeks with Sep 8 15:40:25 localhost yum: Installed: kernel-2.6.30.5-43.fc11.ppc64 and it's a three line fix (including a blank line), so if Fedora 11 is not abandoning 64-bit PowerPC I think the fix should be applied and pushed out. This was fixed upstream in 2.6.30.6 Fixed with kernel-2.6.30.8-64.fc11.ppc64. Thanks! |
