[BlueOnyx:22256] 6108R and xorg-x11-drv-ati-firmware YUM update

[Michael Stauber]

Hi all,

If you have an Aventurin{e} 6108R and run into this error during a YUM
update?

> file /lib/firmware/radeon/RS780_me.bin from install of
> xorg-x11-drv-ati-firmware-7.6.1-4.el6.noarch conflicts with file from
> package vzkernel-firmware-2.6.32-042stab131.1.noarch

Then edit /etc/yum.conf find the line that says ...

exclude=kernel

... and change it to this:

exclude=kernel xorg-x11-drv-ati-firmware

Save the changes and then the YUM update will ignore that RPM. You can
safely ignore it on a server, especially if it doesn't have an ATI
graphics chip.
