4.360. xorg-x11-server-utils
Updated xorg-x11-server-utils packages that fix multiple bugs and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
The xorg-x11-server-utils package contains a collection of utilities used to modify and query the runtime configuration of the X.Org server. X.Org is an open source implementation of the X Window System.
The xorg-x11-server-utils packages have been upgraded to upstream version 7.1 which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version. (BZ#713862)
Bug Fixes
- BZ#657554
- Previously, the xrandr options --scale and -- transform caused a segmentation fault, because these options required an --output field but the utility didn't validate the command line properly check for existing output. With this update, xrandr displays a message informing that the --scale and -- transform options also require the --output option.
- BZ#740146
- Previously, xrandr wrongly assumed that a gamma ramp value of zero was a failure. When VNC was enabled, xrandr returned a zero value. With this update, xrandr is modified to allow for a gamma ramp value of zero. Now xrandr no longer fails when running VNC.
All users of xorg-x11-server-utils are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs and add these enhancements.
