Hi, thanks for your answer... I forgot to say that I do not see "Input

hasn't a "Tapping" option. Therefore, I cannot enable it... Or do I need to

Re: Posted for testing on SL6: updated xorg drivers

2012-07-11 Thread Ken Teh

Continuing problems with X11.

No discernible pattern.  After the downgrade, we can get the login box but 
after logging in, the screen will simply blank out.  Sometimes it blanks out 
immediately.  Sometimes you can actually get a few minutes of useful work done 
before it blanks out.

Re: X11 server won't start after yum upgrade

2012-07-11 Thread Alec T. Habig
Initially X crashed for me too, but rebuilding the proprietry nvidia
driver I use got me past it.  So it certainly seems as if something in
the API the server uses to talk to its drivers has changed, and a global
rebuild of all the X driver packages is in order.

Synopsis: Low: xorg-x11-server security and bug fix update
Issue Date: 2012-06-20
CVE Numbers: CVE-2011-4029
CVE-2011-4028


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.

A flaw was found in the way the X.Org server handled lock files. A 
local

user with access to the system console could use this flaw to
determine the
existence of a file in a directory not accessible to the user, via a
symbolic link attack. (CVE-2011-4028)

A race condition was found in the way the X.Org server managed 
temporary

lock files. A local attacker could use this flaw to perform a symbolic
link
attack, allowing them to make an arbitrary file world readable,
leading to
the disclosure of sensitive information. (CVE-2011-4029)


This update also fixes the following bugs:

* Prior to this update, the KDE Display Manager (KDM) could pass 
invalid

24bpp pixmap formats to the X server. As a consequence, the X server
could
unexpectedly abort. This update modifies the underlying code to pass 
the

correct formats.

* Prior to this update, absolute input devices, like the stylus of a
graphic tablet, could become unresponsive in the right-most or
bottom-most
screen if the X server was configured as a multi-screen setup through
multiple "Device" sections in the xorg.conf file. This update 
changes the

screen crossing behavior so that absolute devices are always mapped
across
all screens.

* Prior to this update, the misleading message "Session active, not
inhibited, screen idle. If you see this test, your display server is
broken
and you should notify your distributor." could be displayed after
resuming
the system or re-enabling the display, and included a URL to an 
external

web page. This update removes this message.

* Prior to this update, the erroneous input handling code of the Xephyr
server disabled screens on a screen crossing event. The focus was 
only on

the screen where the mouse was located and only this screen was updated
when the Xephyr nested X server was configured in a multi-screen setup.
This update removes this code and Xephyr now correctly updates 
screens in

multi-screen setups.

* Prior to this update, raw events did not contain relative axis
values. As
a consequence, clients which relied on relative values for functioning
did
not behave as expected. This update sets the values to the original
driver
values instead of the already transformed values. Now, raw events 
contain

relative axis values as expected.

All users of xorg-x11-server are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which correct these issues. All running X.Org server 
instances

must be restarted for this update to take effect.

X11 server don't start after yum update

2012-07-11 Thread jean-christophe . lambry

Hi,

Yesterday, after 'yum update' and a reboot, the X11 server don't start.

My computer is a Dell T610 server without graphic card and Scientific  
Linux 6.0


I join /var/log/Xorg.0.log and startx command output.

What can I do to restart correctly my Gnome desktop ?

Yawn. My favourite bug (6.2 ypserv does not respond to NIS broadcasts,
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=829475)
did not make 6.3, got pushed to 6.4. Maybe it's a hint that I should
learn LDAP.
