[opensuse] usbfs
So can someone point me to the reason other than a security issue that usbfs was removed (or disabled) in the kernel? All I have been able to find is a security issue. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[opensuse] kernel updates
Why are previous kernels deleted from the system when doing a kernel update? I know of no other distro that has that behavior. I'd think you'd want to have the old kernel available in case the update bombs or doesnt work properly. When doing a kernel update and getting the new source its also annoying that the old source is deleted. Its also annoying when the new source isnt available at the same time as the kernel. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

(and therefore for me) Why did it get removed from 10.2 ? I have heard of security reasons, now I don't believe this, since if it were security, it would not be re-introduced into 10.3, so more specifically - why it was removed ? Read bugzilla. It was indeed removed for security reasons and also because an alternative interface is available that has no security problems - but since it's not mounted by default, the admin can decide on his/her own whether this is a security concern or whether s/he needs it for VMware, Andreas Just to let you gents know, I installed both the perl-bootloader fix and the kernel update. The perl bootloader fix worked well. The kernel update went fine, but vmware still wont pick up my usb devices.
