Comment 1 Thomas Andrews 2018-02-19 22:33:24 CET
Installed on both 32-bit and 64-bit systems, two different sets of hardware. My hardware is not on the list of changes, but is affected by the packages.

Everything looks good on my hardware, anyway. I would give OKs, but as these packages affect so many different pieces of hardware, it probably should have more tests.

Comment 2 Len Lawrence 2018-02-20 02:31:00 CET
These have been installed on several 64-bit systems here for a few days.  No regressions noted.  Not directly affected by any of the changes AFAIK.

MGA6-32 on Dell Latitude D600 Mate, Pentium M
No installation issues.
This laptop has a Wifi connection on USB-rtl8191S: works OK. Pity building driver for rtl8192cu and rtl8192eu still fails at boot.
OK for me, no problems encountered.
