1.168. xorg-x11-drv-sis

An updated xorg-x11-drv-sis package is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

xorg-x11-drv-sis is a video driver for the X.Org implementation of the X Window System that provides a support for Silicon Integrated Systems (SiS) graphics chips.

This update adds the following enhancement:

* The video driver has been extended to support XGI Volari Z9s application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs). These chips are typically used in servers and server management products. ( BZ#483568)

Note: On new installations of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.6, this updated package will use the appropriate driver automatically. On existing systems, it may be necessary to switch to the "xgi" driver after the updated package is installed. To do this, run the following command as root:

system-config-display --reconfig

All users of the xorg-x11-drv-sis driver should upgrade to this updated package, which adds this enhancement.
