lirc
The lirc_dev module contained in the dkms-lirc package shipped with
Mandriva Linux 2009 contains a bug which would cause it to crash (oops)
immediately on load. The result of this is that lirc is unusable,
and if you have dkms-lirc installed and the 'lircd' service enabled,
the system may fail to boot correctly. The updated package fixes this
bug and provides a set of lirc modules that load and work correctly.
Please note that this issue only affects systems with the actual IR
hardware that lirc works with.
