Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated powertop package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
PowerTOP is a tool to detect all the software components that make a computer
consume more than necessary power when idle. PowerTOP can be used to reduce
power usage by running various commands on the system.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Previously, PowerTOP did not correctly handle the SIGWINCH signal. As a
result, PowerTOP was terminated unexpectedly if the terminal window, in which
PowerTOP was running, was resized. This update fixes the SIGWINCH signal
handling so that PowerTOP is not unexpectedly terminated if the terminal window
is resized. (BZ#698422)
All PowerTOP users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes
this bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
