MKINITRD & MODPROBE: due to a problem with Mainboard-sensors i blacklisted Modules taht can endanger stability on my system ( https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=259992 ) .. now the are back in play i think overriding such important configs is no good idea - there should at least be a summary what to change back or what was changed after upgrade .. does anyone agree to this ? thnx4support -c- -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=272625 ------- Comment #2 from aosthof@novell.com 2007-05-10 02:09 MST ------- Hi Christoph, to solve this problem, I need a little bit more information: - How did you upgrade to the latest kernel (online-update/manual install/...) ? - Which config files exactly have been messed up (grub.conf/menu.lst/...) ? - Do you still have a backup from your original (not messed up) config ? - If so, please attach the "before" and "after" versions of those files Thanks in advance -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
