Updated xorg-x11-server packages that fix a 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#835626
Previously, the RRSelectInput() function failed to perform endian conversion correctly. Consequently, some gtk2 applications run on a little-endian architecture but displayed on a big-endian architecture - or vice versa - terminated unexpectedly with the "BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)" error message returned. A patch has been applied to address this issue and the applications now run correctly in the described scenario.
All users of xorg-x11-server are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.

Bug Fix

BZ#859324
Previously, running multiple xterm processes generating large amounts of text caused a memory leak in the X server. Consequently, all available system RAM could be consumed over time. This update fixes the composite wrapper code that was leaking certain region structures and the X server no longer leaks memory in the described scenario.

BZ#871964
On certain HP ProLiant DL380e Gen8 Server configurations, switching to a different virtual console, or switching to runlevel 3 from runlevel 5, or shutting down the system from runlevel 5 did not work correctly.
