hw-detect (1.88ubuntu1) precise; 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.
    - 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.
    - 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.
    - 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.
    - Offer iSCSI targets for preseeding if partman-iscsi is available and
      no disk devices are found.
    - Stop installing acpi, acpid, and acpi-support-base if acpi is
      available.
    - Add an 'archdetect-deb' package, containing /usr/bin/archdetect.  Add
      an archdetect(1) manual page.
    - Refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 in debian/copyright.
    - Load xenbus_probe_frontend if we're running under the Xen hypervisor.

hw-detect (1.88) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Milan Kupcevic ]
  * discover-mac-io.sh: Detect OHare, Heathrow/Paddington, and KeyLargo ATA
    controllers to support transition from formerly compiled-in ide-pmac driver
    to pata_macio module. Ref: #636269.

  [ Joey Hess ]
  * check-missing-firmware.sh: Add a special case for USB devices, for
    which the devpath provided from firmware.agent claims to be for the
    usbcore module. Search through subdirectories of the devpath to find
    the actual driver module for the USB hardware. Closes: #648631
    (Thanks, Brian Potkin, for testing the fix.)
