Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated kudzu packages that fix various bugs and add support for virtual
devices are now available.

Description

Kudzu is a hardware probing tool run at system boot time to determine
what hardware has been added or removed from the system.

This update fixes the following bugs:

• kudzu crashed when /proc/scsi/scsi was corrupted
  
• serial consoles higher than /dev/ttyS3 could not be found
  
• module_upgrade did not correctly handle some Qlogic devices
  
• the SCSI probe was incomplete on machines with many SCSI devices
  

Support has been added for IBM eHEA network adapters and IBM zSeries FBA
DASD devices. Support for Xen virtual block and network devices has also
been added, for running a paravirtualized Red Hat Enterprise Linux
installation.

It is recommended that all users upgrade to these updated packages.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
