This week we uploaded the 3.4.0-5.11 Quantal kernel which was shipped with the Alpha-1 release. This upload contained some critical fixes for the Alpha-1 release. The upstream v3.5-rc1 Linux kernel was also released this week and we are currently working on getting the Quantal kernel rebased. We have re-targeted any open Alpha-1 work items to Alpha-2. We received a freeze exception this week and uploaded the 3.5.0-17.28
kernel. This most notably contained some critical bug fixes for the
following:

 * Bug:1061599 - beagle: omap3: usb is dead
 * Bug:1021471 - clone() hang when creating new network namespace
 * Bug:1030233 -not have bluetooth usb 0489:e046 Foxconn / Hon Hai
 * Bug:717970 - After sleep, key presses get lost and trackpad is jittery

As usual, we also uploaded this kernel to the
ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/q-lts-backport PPA to facilitate testing of the
12.10 kernel in 12.04. Please test and let us know your results.

We typically prefer to refrain from uploading early -rc, eg 3.5-rc1. However, depending on initial testing, we may choose to do so. Nothing at this time.

What was done engineering wise?

We received a freeze exception this week and uploaded the 3.5.0-17.28 kernel. This most notably contained some critical bug fixes for the following:

  • 1061599 - beagle: omap3: usb is dead

  • 1021471 - clone() hang when creating new network namespace

  • 1030233 -not have bluetooth usb 0489:e046 Foxconn / Hon Hai

  • 717970 - After sleep, key presses get lost and trackpad is jittery

As usual, we also uploaded this kernel to the ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/q-lts-backport PPA to facilitate testing of the 12.10 kernel in 12.04. Please test and let us know your results.
