Mandriva Linux Advisory MDVA-2008:115

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

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : drakxtools

Date : August 7, 2008

Affected: 2008.1

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

This drakxtools update contains file leaks and automatic disk discovery

fixes. The network driver detection used to leak file descriptors,

meaning that network applications like the wireless tool or the

network center stopped working after extended use. The automatic disk

discovery tool did not correctly mark new media as removable, and

thus they were checked at every boot, which stopped the boot process

if the media was not present. Both problems are fixed in this update.
