Mandriva Linux Advisory MDVA-2009:021

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

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : drakxtools

Date : February 12, 2009

Affected: 2009.0

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

This update fixes several minor issues with drakxtools:

 

- it prevents the harddrake service to uselessly backup xorg.conf

when not configuring the driver

- it fixes a couple minor issues with diskdrake:

o stop crashing when udev & diskdrake are competing in order to

create a device node (#41832)

o --dav: handle davfs2 credentials in /etc/davfs2/secrets (#44190)

o --dav: handle https

o --nfs: handle host:/ (#44320)

o --smb: cifs must be used instead of smbfs (#42483)

o lookup for Samba master browsers too

- it fixes displaying various devices in their proper category in

the harddrake GUI

- it handle a couple of new network driver

- finish-install:

o show only installed 3D desktops

o adapt to new Xconfig::glx API (drak3d 1.21)

o use /dev/urandom instead of /dev/random to generate salt for

passwords (since reading on /dev/random can block boot process)

- prevent mdkapplet from crashing (#46477)

- smb: fix netbios name resolution (#42483, thanks to Derek Jennings)
