  • Little typo bug - package unknown

    From Hans@21:1/5 to All on Thu Aug 8 17:30:01 2024
    This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

    Dear list,

    I discovered a little typo bug, which mightnot be important, but maybe one knows, which
    developer can be informed.

    Wheh connecting a mobile fdrom Samsung to my computer, the message in /var/log/syslog
    tells:


    2024-08-07T13:11:14.047644+02:00 protheus2 kernel: [ 2649.347050] usb 2-1.1: Product:
    MSM8952
    2024-08-07T13:11:14.047647+02:00 protheus2 kernel: [ 2649.347054] usb 2-1.1: Manufacturer: Sasmsung

    As we know, it should be "Samsung" not "Sasmsung". I believe it does no harm and it is just a
    typo. However, as I could not get, which package is responsible for it (this showed also in kali
    and other debian installations), I allow me to ask here.

    If one knows, please drop the developer a short message.

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Best regards

    Hans

    Kernel messages come kernel package, e.g. linux-image-4.19.0-27-amd64.

    (this showed also in kali and other debian installations), I allow me to ask here.

    If one knows, please drop the developer a short message.

    I would like to know the output of `uname -r`.

    Is it possible this is the device itself identifying like that? I do
    not find "Sasmsung" anywhere on codesearch and the code that prints
    that seems to believe what the device tells it…

    Thanks,
    Andy

    Hi Andy, I am quite not sure. I filed a bugreport to the kernel team, as it is only a little typo and does no harm, they can drop it or fix it.

    Hmm, your idea came also in my mind already, but I did not check for it.

    Although I owe several Samsung devices, they are all different models. So the kernel will recognize each different. Otherwise I could check, if two devices of the same model behave different. If they create equal answers, there is still the chance, the kernel answers incorrect or the manufacturer answers incorrect.

    I am not sure, who is telling the menufacturer: the kernel or the device itself. You can be right, the device is telling the manufacturer, but I am not completely sure of it.

    Almost certainly the package is usb.ids, which provides a
    translation from USB ID numbers to names.
