2.6.35.11 new kernel available

[cbxbiker61]

2.6.35.11 is now available.

The 2.6.35.x kernels are long term support kernels.

Plugapps is now mirroring the kernels on a nightly basis, so kernels won't typically show up there until the following day after the announcement.  They do have much more bandwidth than I do, so it's probably preferred to get them from Plugapps.  The README files attempt to download from Plugapps first and then fallback to sheeva.with-linux.com.

Kernel and modules are available from the following locations:

http://www.plugapps.com/with-linux/
http://sheeva.with-linux.com/sheeva/

Features e-sata, dmcrypt, IPV6, CIFS, NFS4, EXT3, EXT4, JFS, XFS, FUSE(for ntfs-3g), UBIFS, usb-serial, uvcvideo, iptables, appletalk, bluetooth, v4l and ppp.

How do I install this new image?
I have the latest uboot and can run debian 2.6.32-5 but any other version I try either fails to boot or no Wifi.

The directions are at the top of the README-2.6.35.11.  There's also a wiki page on it.  Find out what wifi module you need, then look in the config file to see if it's supported.

flash this uboot  before kernel-upgrade  ( http://plugapps.com/os/guruplug/guruplug-u-boot.bin )

wifi is working correctly with this kernel-version

How 'bout enabling support for CONFIG_DVB_USB and associated USB Tuners ?

A:
http://sheeva.with-linux.com/sheeva/2.6.35.11/sheeva-2.6.35.11.config
# CONFIG_DVB_USB is not set

Can anyone confirm if usb sleep for  is supported for storage devices in any of the kernels posted here? I installed the kernel (but still using initrd) and  it didn't work. Maybe it's because I still use initrd?
you can test it using: hdparm -Y /dev/<your harddisk> and see if it does spindown. Thanks in advance!

(this works for me with the older debian kernel (2.6.32.5)

Ok I found out it's because I use the cypress usb to ata chip in my harddisk enclosure. Would be great if it would be supported in later kernel builds as a module. (it's under usb storage). Can someone with a sata enclouse try to get it into sleep? Thnx

i can my sata disk gonne sleep:
hdparm -S 180 /dev/sdd  works eventough it's a sata-disk

sdparm --long /dev/sdd
    /dev/sdd: SAMSUNG   HD103UJ
    Direct access device specific parameters: WP=0  DPOFUA=0

and i can force 't to sleep:
a) sdparm --command=sync  /dev/sdd
b) sdparm --command=stop  /dev/sdd
and to awake:
c) sdparm --command=start /dev/sdd

Yes, I just added support to 2.6.35.11, 2.6.36.4 and 2.6.37.1.

thnx a lot! I tried compiling the kernel myself, but it hangs at boot so I am very happy to hear it will be in the kernel. You probably found out it's this one right? CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB
I am looking forward to the new builds

[savale]

oops don;t know how to edit a post, but just installed 2.6.37.1 and it works like a charm now! Thanks so much. I hope you can keep the support for future kernels. Thnx!
