Topic

An updated vino package that fixes a bug is now available.

Description

Vino is a Virtual Network Computing (VNC) server for GNOME. It allows
remote users to connect to a running GNOME session using VNC.

  • Vino incorrectly assumed the X shared memory extension would always

provide support for shared memory pixmaps. This lead to crashes with a
BadImplementation error message. This update adds a check, ensuring shared
memory pixmap support is available before requesting it. (BZ#493097)

All Vino users are advised to upgrade to these updated vino packages, which
resolve this issue.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
