4.358. xorg-x11-server
Updated xorg-x11-server packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
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.
Bug Fix
- BZ#759022
- 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.
All users of xorg-x11-server are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bugs.

Bug Fix
- BZ#783505
- Previously, if the X server was configured as a multi-screen setup through multiple "Device" sections in the xorg.conf file, an absolute input device (for example a graphic tablet's stylus) got stuck in the right-most or bottom-most screen. This update changes the screen crossing behavior so that absolute devices are always mapped across all screens.
