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

Package:	Xautoconfig	
Issue Date: 	May 02, 2002	
Priority:	medium		
Advisory ID: 	YDU-20020502-2


1. 	Topic:

	Updated Xautoconfig packages are available.


2. 	Problem:

	The Xautoconfig package that shipped with Yellow Dog Linux 2.2
	has a system init script that contains a commented line that
	causes serviceconf to crash.  This update removes that line
	which allows serviceconf to function as usual.


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 Xautoconfig

   	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-2.2/ppc/
		rpm -Fvh Xautoconfig-0.15-2b.ppc.rpm
