We uploaded a new 3.5.0-14.15 Quantal kernel this week. The most notable changes
include upstream audio patches from v3.6 other misc bug fixes. As usual, we will
also upload this kernels to the ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/q-lts-backport PPA to facilitate
testing of the 12.10 kernel in 12.04. Please test and let us know your results.
We received a freeze exception this week and uploaded the 3.5.0-17.28
kernel. This most notably contained some critical bug fixes for the
following:

 * Bug:1061599 - beagle: omap3: usb is dead
 * Bug:1021471 - clone() hang when creating new network namespace
 * Bug:1030233 -not have bluetooth usb 0489:e046 Foxconn / Hon Hai
 * Bug:717970 - After sleep, key presses get lost and trackpad is jittery

What was done engineering wise?

We received a freeze exception this week and uploaded the 3.5.0-17.28 kernel. This most notably contained some critical bug fixes for the following:

  • 1061599 - beagle: omap3: usb is dead

  • 1021471 - clone() hang when creating new network namespace

  • 1030233 -not have bluetooth usb 0489:e046 Foxconn / Hon Hai

  • 717970 - After sleep, key presses get lost and trackpad is jittery

As usual, we also uploaded this kernel to the ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/q-lts-backport PPA to facilitate testing of the 12.10 kernel in 12.04. Please test and let us know your results.
