I was under the impression all yeeloong specific patches were targeted
to be merged in .38 and .39, so Debian should already have them in
testing.
As such I'm going to close the gNS bug.
thanks,

Since the project page you sent a link to mentions that one of its goals is to upstream the stable patches, I guess both this bug and the Debian bug can be closed. I just wonder why the upstream process is taking so long...

Thank you.

The only non-branding and non-packaging patch in the gNewSense kernel for YeeLoong is made from http://dev.lemote.com/code/linux-loongson-community/.

Hi!

The Longsoon running Lemote Yeelong requires your patched kernel to function properly. However the kernel does not install on Debian Wheezy.

After contacting the Debian maintainers, it was suggested that I ask you to submit your patches upstream. It would be a great help to Debian users if you could do this.

The Debian bug I opened is #642066.
