[Bug 642518] Re: [MASTER] package fglrx 2:8.723.1-0ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: Kernel fix for CVE-2010-3081 breaks fglrx

 

@Evan Broder,Alberto Milone:

With regard to version

........ fglrx-installer-2:8.771-0ubuntu0sarvatt~lucid

as hosted by the Ubuntu X-Swat PPA, I have created a diff/patch for
8.771 that I hope will work.  It employs Evan's patches for the three
files:

........ kcl_ioctl.c
........ make.sh
........ Makefile

and updates the changelog.

The diff/patch is attached to this post.

If anyone has a machine that they can use for testing, please add the
LaunchPad Ubuntu X-Swat PPA ("deb-src" line = "source code") and PPA key
for Lucid to your repositories, download the source for 8.771, then
apply the attached patch. You can do this using steps similar to those
given in Post #14.

(Warning:  The steps are not identical, you will need to make some
adjustments.  In particular, the

........ wget

line will need to change.  If you only have production machines, you
probably don't want to mess around with this diff/patch until it gets
the OK from a few experienced Ubuntu-X team members.)

Nothing urgent, but if anyone can provide any feedback, then many
thanks.
