Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-image-amd64-generic

Hello,

apparently something went wrong with a recent kernel patch I submitted upstream. A typo in the file

linux/drivers/net/pcmcia/com20020_cs.c

prevents the Arcnet PCMCIA device by Sohard AG from working. Around line 392 the Ubuntu version of the kernel says:

PCMCIA_DEVICE_PROD_ID12("SoHar AG", "SH ARC PCMCIA", 0xf8991729, 0x69dff0c7),

it should read though

PCMCIA_DEVICE_PROD_ID12("SoHard AG", "SH ARC PCMCIA", 0xf8991729, 0x69dff0c7),

The kernel even complains about the wrong hash value caused by the missing "d" in "SoHard AG". Again, the error is not present in the vanilla kernel 2.6.19 - only in the ubuntu version of the kernel in the dapper and edgy distribution. Since I don't understand the patch mechanism of ubuntu, I don't know where this error has been introduced.

Please fix this issue. Thank you.

Marc
