Package name acpid
Date November 16th, 2005
Advisory ID MDKA-2005:055
Affected versions 2006.0
Synopsis Updated acpid package fixes various bugs

Problem Description

A number of bugs have been fixed in this new acpid package: Correct an error in the initscript, to look for lm_battery.sh rather than battery.sh. Correct an issue where logrotate of acpid's log files would cause the X server to consume 100% cpu. Note: In order to restart the acpid service you may have to stop X (telinit 3 if you use a graphical login, or exit X if you use startx).

Verification

Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of the downloaded package. You can do this with the command :

                rpm --checksig package.rpm
                

You can get the GPG public key of the Mandriva Security Team to verify the GPG signature of each RPM.
