hw-detect (1.72ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
    - Remove FireWire Ethernet support.
    - Register lp module on i386 and amd64.
    - Exit zero if you continue all the way through ethdetect's errors about
      having no network interfaces.
    - Register rtc module on amd64.
    - Drop priorities of a couple of ethdetect questions to medium.
    - Install mouseemu on systems likely to have single-button mice (i.e.
      Macs), but not powerpc64 since that causes an oops in the input layer.
    - On powerpc/ps3 systems, load ps3rom, ps3disk, and ps3_gelic, and add
      snd_ps3 to /etc/modules.
    - Install elfspe2 on Cell (powerpc/ps3 and powerpc/cell) platforms.
    - Add hooks for iSCSI support.
    - disk-detect.sh: Do not check the kernel command line for any option
      to enable dmraid support. If functional dmraid arrays are found, the
      user will be asked if they wish to activate them.
    - Make dmraid logging a bit neater.
    - 'dmraid -c -s' changed its output format; cope with both old and new.
    - Reinstate snd-powermac for i2s-a devices since apparently the lock-up
      has been fixed.
    - Remove dm-emc from the multipath modules, since it's gone since
      2.6.27.
    - Improve checks for dm-* drivers being present to avoid relying on them
      being built as modules.
    - Install libc6-vfp on armel systems where the vfp word is found in the
      /proc/cpuinfo features.
  * Don't use 'grep -w' in VFP-detection code, since busybox doesn't
    implement it (LP: #359915).

hw-detect (1.72) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Ask the correct parameters question if modprobe fails.
  * Cope with dm-mod being built-in (e.g. custom kernels).
  * Merge from Ubuntu:
    - Check dmraid's exit code rather than parsing its output.
    - Use 'update-dev --settle' rather than 'update-dev' after loading
      modules (although not after installing new module packages, which may
      still require a trigger). Requires di-utils 1.66.
    - Activate only non-degraded dmraid arrays (thanks, Luke Yelavich;
      closes: #499482).

  [ Frans Pop ]
  * Install usbutils based on presence of /sys/bus/usb.

  [ Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña ]
  * Fix Spanish translation. Closes: #510304

  [ Frans Pop ]
  * Remove myself as uploader.
  * Move hook scripts to directories to simplify including them.
  * hppa: starting with kernel 2.6.29 modules for devices on the parisc bus
    should be loaded automatically.
