Description Stig-Ørjan Smelror 2017-06-20 23:25:43 CEST 
Hardware: Alienware M17x R2 (2010)

Message when upgrading kernel:
cannot get info for device (6:0:0:1) at /usr/lib/libDrakX/detect_devices.pm line 272.
Creating: target|kernel|dracut args|basicmodules
You should restart your computer for kernel-desktop-4.9.34-1.mga6


Nothing serious, but this message should be squashed IMHO.

Cheers,
Stig

On February 7 this year, joeghi and pterjan discussed the issue on IRC.... it seems they didn't commit the fix that pterjan suggested, which was to change this line
http://gitweb.mageia.org/software/drakx/tree/perl-install/detect_devices.pm#n272 :

   warn("cannot get info for device ($_)"), next if !$device;

into
 
   next if !$device;
