Package name lirc
Date January 11th, 2007
Advisory ID MDKA-2007:007
Affected versions 2007.0
Synopsis Updated lirc packages fixes issue with dkms-lirc and SMP kernels

Problem Description

Dkms-lirc allows one to install LIRC drivers on non-Mandriva kernels.
It contains a driver named lirc_parallel.ko which does not work on
SMP-enabled kernels, preventing the driver installation on such
kernels. The lirc_parallel.ko driver has been removed from the updated
package and moved to a separate package named dkms-lirc-parallel.
