Problem description

This update contains the upgrade to the latest stable kernel 2.6.39
as shipped with Mandriva Linux 2011 Powerpack. The summary of the
changes made during this release can be found at the usual places
like http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_39

It's worth noticing that for this release the BKL (big kernel lock)
has been completely removed.

Besides the mainline changes there's also some changes by Mandriva.

- IDE old stack has been totally disabled: we're not using the old
IDE drivers which were known to cause problems for some users with
CD/DVD drives.

- It includes the backport of the rtl8192se driver which was available
on older kernels through a dkms (dkms-r8192se) (#64022)

- Some fixes was backported from the 3.0 tree, see for details:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.mandrake.cooker.devel/312832

Additionally binary kernel dkms modules for fglrx, nvidia173,
nvidia-current, virtualbox, vpnclient is being provided. The
nvidia-96xx driver version (96.43.19) was obsolete and incompatible
with X.org 1.10. A new binary kernel dkms module version 96.43.20
is also being provided with this advisory to adddres this problem
(#64727).
