4.118. xorg-x11-server

Updated xorg-x11-server packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
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#960950
After booting the system in runlevel 5, if the user tried to the kill X.org process, it became unresponsive, displaying the following error:
Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting
This bug occurred in several scenarios, including switching the runlevel, using the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination to terminate the X session, or after rebooting the system from the GUI. After this update, X.Org no longer crashes while being killed.
Users of xorg-x11-server are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
