Name : kmod Product : Fedora 19 Version : 13 Release : 2.fc19 URL : http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/kernel/kmod/kmod.git;a=summary Summary : Linux kernel module management utilities Description : The kmod package provides various programs needed for automatic loading and unloading of modules under 2.6, 3.x, and later kernels, as well as other module management programs. Device drivers and filesystems are two examples of loaded and unloaded modules. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Main package should require -libs Update to the latest upstream release. From the release announcement: "The most notable new features are the support for finit_module() syscall and for signed modules. For finit_module() we try to be nice with older kernels and we fallback to init_module() if the new one is not available. The older syscall is also used in case the module is compressed." The modinfo command will now display module signature information as well. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program. Use su -c 'yum update kmod' at the command line. For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum", available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/. All packages are signed with the Fedora Project GPG key. More details on the GPG keys used by the Fedora Project can be found at https://fedoraproject.org/keys -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ package-announce mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-announce
