I just updated from 2.6.30.2 to 2.6.31.4 and I had the dubious pleasure to find out that the "don't change user interfaces" principle has been ignored once again.
Stopping rfkill for wlan0 was: echo 1 > /sys/class/net/wlan0/device/rfkill/rfkill*/state
now it's: echo 1 > /sys/class/net/wlan0/device/ieee80211/phy*/rfkill*/state
and it was different for 29.4 (no /rfkill/ subdirectory). What will it be for 32? Bets are open.
As for my sound card (intel hda), looks like someone decided to add two controls for jack presence detection *in* *the* *middle* of the existing controls. Numbered controls, mind you, because somehow names must be too complex to use. That made alsactl decide not to restore my levels. Always pleasant.
Will the alsa and the sysfs-using guys ever bother with compatibility?
OG.
