RE: [PLUG] kernel 2.6 and /dev/psaux
|
There's an update for this but I can't recall the specifics --a
udev update I think. Also, check for the following:
/proc/bus/input
As for the second issue, there should be a config availabe for
dist-upgrade. I'm not familiar with this but w/RH, FC
there's the following:
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date:
pkgSkipList=kernel*;
