- on my desktop: "Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown
reason". workaround: turn off nmi_watchdog with powertop or a boot
parameter (nmi_watchdog=0) or
`echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog'. - on my laptop: "ath5k phy0: gain calibration timeout". workaround: power off (!) machine & reboot into 2.6.37.

RC bugs 2011/03 - 2011/07
squeeze is released but this doesn't mean the end of the ordinary RC bug;
old ones are still around, & new ones keep floating in.
as a short reminder to take the occasional look at the RC bug list I'm again posting what
I've done in the last weeks. as you can see no NMUs but only work on packages
I have a relation to, & often only uploading packages prepared by others
(yeah teamwork!).

merci !
now that we have released squeeze, I'd like to say thanks to the release
team. I've really enjoyed the cooperation in the past months.
the people I had the most contact with were mehdi & also adam, &
they were always very quick, very friendly, & very cooperative when I
had some requests.
merci beaucoup, & I hope you continue your good work!
