Hey Sedat,<br><br>Thanks for your efforts (and patience really). We are on the process of releasing a new version of Splashy that closes a lot of known bugs (especially very old ones).<br>As of this moment, we are in the very final steps to the release. There are a lot of us testing the new code and cross-referencing against the bugs in the DBTS. With Fabo's new upload of libdirectfb-dev, I think that we can finalize the testing process and change the debian/control file to depend on this version that has this vital patch! (We can't never be grateful enough for John Hughes' efforts to get this properly patched for us!)<br>
<br>Keep in tune...<br><br>Regards,<br><br>P.S. oh, I'll check the emails from the mailing list quarantine queue. Your message might be on hold for some strange reason.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, May 15, 2008 at 11:48 AM, Sedat Dilek <<a href="mailto:sedat.dilek@googlemail.com">sedat.dilek@googlemail.com</a>> wrote:<br>

<br>
I made a new upstream version based on the updates from git-repository<br>
as of 13-May-2008 and build it against libdirectfb-dev v1.0.1-9.<br>
Hoping this closes BUGs #472497 and #462626.<br>
<br>
A question by-the-way:<br>
Is the patching in "/etc/init.d/keymap.sh" obsolete with the<br>
"vt-fix-canonical-input-in-utf-8-mode.patch" [3] in the upcoming Linux<br>
kernel v2.6.25.4 [4]?<br>
<br>

[...]<br>
We need to apply this patch to libdirectfb-dev (on debian) so it does not<br>
loop endlessly when it cannot read the previous keyboard device (before init<br>
changes root trees during boot).<br>

Changes:<br>
directfb (1.0.1-9) unstable; urgency=low<br>
.<br>
* Add cross build support. Thanks to Neil Williams. (Closes: #480933)<br>
* Add 92_reopen_console.patch: when libdirectfb detects zero length reads, it<br>
attempts to reopen the console (possibly from a newly mounted root tree).<br>
[...]<br>
<br>
Kind Regards,<br>
Sedat<br>
<br>
P.S.:<br>
What about my Email from last Saturday to the<br>
splashy-devel-mailing-list - disappeared in nirvana (/dev/null)?<br>
Shall I resend it?<br>
