It seems that in the new kernel MMC drivers are set to modules and also MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME it&#8217;s disabled, which also seems to kind of destroy the file system on SD cards after resume from suspend/standby. The fix can be found at <a
href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pm-utils/+bug/342096" target="_blank">https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pm-utils/+bug/342096</a> and requires to modify the kernel configuration from:</p><blockquote><p>CONFIG_MMC=y<br
/> CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK=m<br
/> CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI=m<br
/> CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_PCI=m<br
/> # CONFIG_MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME is not set</p></blockquote><p><span
id="more-457"></span>to this:</p><blockquote><p>CONFIG_MMC=y<br
/> CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK=y<br
/> CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI=y<br
/> CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_PCI=y<br
/> CONFIG_MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME=y</p></blockquote><p>Enabling MMC, MMC_BLOCK, MMC_SDHCI, MMC_SDHI_PCI and MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME, seems to fix the SD cards problem after resume. Now this revision includes this fix, but it never was actually tested by me, so I will have to go on the guys word from the Ubuntu bug report web site and also I will have to hope that you guys will test it and tell me the result.</p><p><strong>Again, I will remind you, that if you are using my previous version of kernel 2.6.30-final (doesn&#8217;t matter that is the first or second revision) you will have to reboot your laptop/netbook into a different version of kernel and then install this revision, other way the upgrade may cause issues and even file corruption. </strong></p><p><strong>How to download:</strong></p><blockquote><p>wget http://dl.robertalks.com/kernel/2.6.30-final/linux-image-2.6.30-final_3_i386.deb</p><p>wget http://dl.robertalks.com/kernel/2.6.30-final/linux-headers-2.6.30-final_3_i386.deb</p><p>wget http://dl.robertalks.com/kernel/2.6.30-final/linux-source-2.6.30-final_3_all.deb</p></blockquote><p><strong>How to install:</strong></p><blockquote><p>dpkg -i linux-headers-2.6.30-final_3_i386.deb linux-image-2.6.30-final_3_i386.deb</p><p>dpkg -i linux-source-2.6.30-final_3_all.deb ( this is the kernel source, may be need it for development)</p></blockquote><p><strong>How to force install (only in case dpkg doesn&#8217;t allow you to install this revision due to some error):</strong></p><blockquote><p>dpkg -i &#8211;force-all linux-headers-2.6.30-final_3_i386.deb linux-image-2.6.30-final_3_i386.deb</p><p>dpkg -i &#8211;force-all linux-source-2.6.30-final_3_all.deb ( this is the kernel source, may be need it for development)</p></blockquote><p><code><br

You got it, this is the latest build for Ubuntu/Debian and its based on 2.6.30 stable from kernel.org. This new build includes all the good stuff from the older one, which means acerhdf module patch, coretemp patch for Intel Atom, also this should have a more proper and stable Intel i915 drivers, mode settings support and framebuffer support.</p><p><span
id="more-437"></span>Also, seems that somehow I totally screwed up my little download mirror and had to recopy the old flyleaf kernel version and some of my scripts. I&#8217;m not totally sure what happened, but I&#8217;m trying to fix it.</p><p>Now back to this kernel version, I&#8217;ve called it &#8220;2.6.30-final&#8221;, as seems the right version for it. I am including the source code for the kernel, with the patches and the config so you can anytime rebuild it for other systems, like Fedora, CentOS, OpenSuse and so on.</p><p>Instruction:</p><p>First we need to download them:</p><blockquote><p><span

style="text-decoration: line-through;">sudo dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.30-final_1_i386.deb linux-headers-2.6.30-final_1_i386.deb</span></p></blockquote><p>and also you may install linux-source-2.6.30-final_1_all.deb if you need it.</p><blockquote><p><span

The base is 2.6.30-rc8, with git6 patch, Acer fan module patch, coretemp patch for the new Intel Atom (of course this new build has full Acer Aspire One support). Also I have re-included the webcam modules, as in the previous release I totally forgot about them.</p><p><span
id="more-420"></span>In general this build should work perfectly on Acer laptops, Acer Aspire One netbook, IBM/Lenovo Thinkpads and HP laptops. I didn&#8217;t tested the kernel on HP laptop, but it was tested already on Acer Aspire One and Lenovo T61. One issue which you may find in this kernel is that it might not work usplash on some Ubuntu releases. If you have some issue when using this kernel please drop me a comment, it is possible that some parts where left out even if in the tests everything worked fine.</p><p><strong>Instructions:</strong></p><p>First download the kernel image and headers:</p><blockquote><p><span
