RHBA-2011:1816 - xorg-x11-server bug fix update


Synopsis

xorg-x11-server bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

Updated xorg-x11-server packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

X.Org is an open source implementation of the X Window System. It provides the basic low-level functionality that full-fledged graphical user interfaces are designed upon.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • Previously, a bug in Xephyr's input handling code disabled screens on a screen crossing event. When the Xephyr nested X server was configured in a multi-screen setup, the focus was only on the screen where the mouse was located, and only this screen was updated. The aforementioned code has been removed and the Xephyr server now correctly updates screens in multi-screen setups. (BZ#759022)

All users of xorg-x11-server are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bugs.
