Change logs for initramfs-tools source package in Oneiric

  • initramfs-tools (0.99ubuntu8) oneiric-proposed; urgency=low
    
      * Too optimistic in thinking that the DRM driver will always be loaded
        in time for scripts/init-top/framebuffer to load; some users find that
        vesafb gets loaded first anyway, scrambling their console state in the
        initramfs.  Add a one-second sleep before checking if we should fall back
        to vesafb, which seems to be long enough to work around this.
        LP: #869119.

  • initramfs-tools (0.99ubuntu7) oneiric; urgency=low
    
      * When falling back to vesafb, suppress stderr output from modprobe;
        otherwise in some cases we'll get error output on a console that was
        nicely blank up to a week ago.  Failing to load vesafb is usually not an
        error in any case.

  • initramfs-tools (0.99ubuntu6) oneiric; urgency=low
    
      * scripts/init-top/framebuffer: fall back to vesafb if no other
        framebuffer is found/configured, so we can take full advantage of the
        grub gfxpayload handoff support.  This ensures we get a clean
        framebuffer-based plymouth screen even when using binary video drivers.
        LP: #864149, LP: #563878, LP: #771905.

  • initramfs-tools (0.99ubuntu5) oneiric; urgency=low
    
      * hooks/compcache: udev RUN commands cannot include double quotes (")
        nor do they support shell syntax.  Move to an external helper script
        to provision and add the memory swap partitions.
      * hooks/compcache: add support for the updated zram staging driver
        which requires the size to be pushed into sysfs and the partition be
        initialised before adding.  (LP: #832694)

  • initramfs-tools (0.99ubuntu4) oneiric; urgency=low
    
      * init: When receiving "recovery" on cmdline, start upstart with
        --startup-event=recovery (LP: #575469)

  • initramfs-tools (0.99ubuntu3) oneiric; urgency=low
    
      * remove hardcoded flash-kernel call from update-initramfs, flash-kernel
        ships the same as /etc/initramfs/post-update.d/ script now
     -- Oliver Grawert <email address hidden>   Fri, 09 Sep 2011 12:14:01 +0200
  • initramfs-tools (0.99ubuntu2) oneiric; urgency=low
    
      * hook-functions: Revert changes from 0.98.8ubuntu3. With the current
        implementation of copying, and /etc/ld.so.conf now existing in initramfs,
        we can leave libraries at their original location. Thanks to maks for
        pointing out!
      * init: Add back compatibility symlink for /dev/.initramfs, until all
        packages using /dev/.initramfs have been moved to /run/initramfs.
        (LP: #810221)

  • initramfs-tools (0.99ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low
    
      * Merge with Debian unstable. See 0.98.8ubuntu1 for remaining Ubuntu
        changes. This version creates /run in the initramfs, and moves it over to
        the running system. (LP: #807306)
      * hooks/busybox: Fix symlinking of /bin/sh to busybox, to work with current
        copy_exec() function.
    
    initramfs-tools (0.99) unstable; urgency=low
    
      Release "scarpe rotte e pur bisogna andar"

      * If copy_exec finds libraries to copy which are only accessible to the
