We uploaded the 3.5.0-15.[20-22] Quantal kernel. These uploads contained
an update to the v3.5.4 upstream stable kernel, eCryptfs bug fixes, Haswell
graphics support patches, an updated and re-enabled aufs, i915 backlight
control fixes, and Cypress PS/2 trackpad tap-to-click fixes. As usual, we
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.		 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

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.

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.
