RHBA-2015:1301 - libdrm, mesa, xorg-x11-drv-ati, and xorg-x11-drv-intel update


Synopsis

libdrm, mesa, xorg-x11-drv-ati, and xorg-x11-drv-intel update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated libdrm, mesa, xorg-x11-drv-ati, and xorg-x11-drv-intel packages that fix several bugs and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The libdrm packages comprise a runtime library for the Direct Rendering Manager. Mesa provides a 3D graphics API that is compatible with Open Graphics Library (OpenGL) and hardware-accelerated drivers for many popular graphics chips. The xorg-x11-drv-ati packages include a driver for ATI graphics cards for the X.Org implementation of the X Window System. The xorg-x11-drv-intel packages contain an Intel integrated graphics video driver for the X.Org implementation of the X Window System.

  • The libdrm packages have been upgraded to upstream version 2.4.59, which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version. (BZ#1186821)

  • The mesa packages have been upgraded to upstream version 10.4.3, which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version. Among other changes, this version includes support for new Intel 3D graphic chip sets. (BZ#1032663)

  • Support for new Intel 3D graphic chip sets has been backported to the xorg-x11-drv-intel packages.

  • The xorg-x11-drv-ati packages have been upgraded to upstream version 7.5.99, which contains a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version. Among other changes, this version includes support for new AMD 3D graphic chip sets. (BZ#1176666)

This update also fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, the radeon driver did not work correctly with the Virtual Network Computing (VNC) module if hardware acceleration was enabled. Consequently, a VNC client connected to a computer set up this way only displayed a blank screen. With this update, this problem has been resolved, and it is now possible to use VNC with the aforementioned setup. (BZ#1084104)

Users of libdrm, mesa, xorg-x11-drv-ati, and xorg-x11-drv-intel are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs and add these enhancements.
