Synopsis

xorg-x11-drv-i810 bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

An updated xorg-x11-drv-i810 package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The xorg-x11-drv-i810 package contains an Intel integrated graphics video driver for the X.Org implementation of the X Window System.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, various bugs in the LVDS (Low-voltage differential signaling) panel setup prevented the Intel graphics driver from being fully functional on Intel Core i3, i5 and i7 processors. Users could, for example, experience problems with dual head setups or problems caused by incorrect PLL (Phase Locked Loop) parameters, search algorithm or pipe depth. This update fixes all LVDS-related bugs, and so ensures correct behavior of the driver. (BZ#581897)

All users of xorg-x11-drv-i810 are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes this bug.
