  - Fix handling of floppy and MO discs.
  - Fix various memory leaks and unused pointers.

[ Steve Langasek ]
* debian/control: Recommend: smartdimmer for sony backlight support.
* 88_nvidia_brightness.patch: add a new sony-nvidia brightness get/set
  method, using the smartdimmer tool, and an fdi policy file so that we
  use this method on Sony laptops with known nVidia chips. Many thanks
  to Lee-tin-yien Yohan <email address hidden> for working on this!
  Closes LP: #277589.

[ Martin Pitt ]
* 88_nvidia_brightness.patch: Also patch Makefile.{am,in} to install the new
  fdi file.

87_standalone_smbios.patch: Add missing bit from
autoreconfiscation, which brings back the building and
installation of hal-acl-tool. This repairs automatic ACLs, and
thus sound card, camera, scanner, DRI, and other device access.
Thanks to Mario Limonciello for the patch! (LP: #334299)

141. By Mario Limonciello on 2009-02-24

* 86_smbios_configure_error.patch:
  - Fix a compilation error that prevented the smbios based Dell
    backlight control from working with later libsmbios builds.
* 87_standalone_smbios.patch:
  - Provide a lightweight C utility for querying WLAN,BT,WWAN rather than
    using the python one from smbios-utils.

140. By Chris Coulson on 2009-02-04

* Update to latest upstream git snapshot:
  - Fix buffer overrun with incorrectly formatted LED
    devices (LP: #322649).

138. By Scott James Remnant (Canonical) on 2009-01-19

* debian/patches/ubuntu_03_dbus_policy.patch, LP: #318746:
  - Always allow D-Bus introspection.
  - Qualify all instances of send_interface with send_destination.
  - Remove confusing and unnecessary receive_* matches: signals and
    expected replies are always allowed.
  - Collapse duplicated policy.
  - Allow the device KillSwitch, CPUFreq, WakeOnLan and DockStation
    interfaces.

137. By Martin Pitt on 2009-01-19

Add 00git_fix_drm_acls.patch: Fix copy&paste error which assigned
the wrong access_control.file for /dev/drm/carddevices. It
previously copied "input.device", but should be
"linux.device_file". This brings back hardware GL rendering,
instead of always using the Mesa software rasterizer. (Part of
LP #269509)

136. By Scott James Remnant (Canonical) on 2009-01-09

Bump dependency on udev.

135. By Scott James Remnant (Canonical) on 2009-01-07

* debian/patches/ubuntu_02_udevrulesdir.patch: Install udev rules into
  /lib/udev/rules.d instead of /etc
* debian/hal.preinst: Remove the old rule file unless it's modified.
