Problem description

Three hardware-related bugs were discovered in the drakxtools package: A test to determine if there was at least one PCMCIA controller was flawed and resulted in disabling PCMCIA support on each boot with some machines. While probing for extra PCI serial controllers, all serial drivers were mistakenly loaded rather than just the serial drivers related to the PCI cards installed in the computer. One can safely remove them from /etc/modules now (8250_pci, 8250, epca, esp, isicom, istallion, moxa, mxser, stallion, sx, synclink, and synclinkmp). Finally, harddrake now detects SATA and RAID controllers (both SATA and SCSI) in their own category. This makes it so that hwdb will not fill the IDE category with SATA controllers. The updated packages correct these issues.
