Yellow Dog Linux Bugfix Announcement
------------------------------------

Package: pmud
Issue Date: January 15, 2002
Priority: high
Advisory ID: YDU-20020115-1

1. Topic:

        Updated pmud and pmac-utils packages are available to fix several
        bugs.

2. Problem:

        pmud as shipped with YDL 2.1 contained some trackpad-related bugs
        which resulted in jittery behavior and unsaved wakeup values.
        The trackpad utility is now part of the pmud package instead of
        pmac-utils.

3. Solution:

           a) Updating via yup...
           We suggest that you use the Yellow Dog Update Program (yup)
           to keep your system up-to-date. The following command(s) will
           automatically retrieve and install the fixed version of
           this update onto your system:

                yup update pmac-utils
                   yup update pmud
 

           b) Updating manually...
           The update can also be retrieved manually from our ftp site
           below along with the rpm command that should be used to install
           the update. (Please use a mirror site)

                   ftp://ftp.yellowdoglinux.com/pub/yellowdog/updates/yellowdog-2.1/ppc/
                rpm -Fvh pmac-utils-2.1-3a.ppc.rpm
                rpm -Fvh pmud-0.10-1b.ppc.rpm
