Mandriva Linux Advisory MDVA-2008:084

http://www.mandriva.com/security/

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : udev

Date : June 3, 2008

Affected: 2008.1

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

The udev rules for network interfaces used to write persistent

settings for hso devices in /etc/udev/rules.d/61-net_config.mules,

which is wrong since their MAC address is random (#39977).

 

The udev rules for automatic driver loading used to load video drivers

during the dkms service start, which could break Xorg start if the

loaded driver was not configured.

 

This update fixes both issues.
