Debugging procedure

Reporting a bug

When reporting a problem with hardware detection, you should report the bug against the appropriate linux-source-2.6.xx package. For example, the correct package in Malone for Dapper is linux-source-2.6.15, for Edgy is linux-source-2.6.17, for Feisty it is linux-source-2.6.20, and for Gutsy it is linux-source-2.6.22

Also, all reports should contain the following information. Please be sure to attach these files to the bug report.

• uname -a > uname-a.log

• cat /proc/version_signature > proc_version_signature.log

• sudo lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.log

• dmesg > dmesg.log

If the system is not correctly detecting a USB device, also attach the output of:

• lsusb > lsusb.log
