_______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Advisory MDVA-2009:084 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : x11-driver-video-intel Date : May 27, 2009 Affected: 2009.1 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: The intel graphics driver shipped in 2009.1 was the 2.7.0 version which has turned out to be somewhat unstable on some systems (this was still more stable overall than earlier versions, but hardly any consolation to those having problems!). This updates the package to the 2.7.1 version recently released by intel and fixes several crashers. The number of changes is quite small, so hopefully minimises any chances of unexpected regressions. Here follows the advisory text from the upstream Intel maintainers: <quote> This is a maintenance release on the 2.7 branch. Compared to 2.7.0 it consists only of a few carefully hand-picked fixes for bugs, (including GPU crashers). We encourage all users of 2.7.0 to upgrade to 2.7.1. We have verified that several of the reported bugs of GPU crashes, (mouse continues to move, but otherwise X is totally unresponsive), are fixed with the commit by Keith Packard in 2.7.1 to correct the computation of the batch space required. If you have previously reported a GPU-crash bug in bugs.freedesktop.org, please test with 2.7.1 and report your findings in the bug. If the crash is fixed, please celebrate with us! If the crash persists, please attach the output of intel_gpu_dump available here (and hopefully packaged in your distribution of choice soon) </quote> Please note that the intel_gpu_dump utility refered to above is now available for 2009.1 via contrib/updates in the intel-gpu-tools pacakge. _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2009.1: de4e27d259ec2e55609e162969206fd8 2009.1/i586/x11-driver-video-intel-2.7.1-0.1mdv2009.1.i586.rpm 6747052a972f3093cbb9b701c62afcc5 2009.1/i586/x11-driver-video-intel-fast-i830-2.7.1-0.1mdv2009.1.i586.rpm 5738a6f4ca841700ab566776affe4473 2009.1/SRPMS/x11-driver-video-intel-2.7.1-0.1mdv2009.1.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2009.1/X86_64: 5b19fc34f8affbfcb3c05cb76425de46 2009.1/x86_64/x11-driver-video-intel-2.7.1-0.1mdv2009.1.x86_64.rpm f37d7cf8e7f8904495ca6b75f01312fa 2009.1/x86_64/x11-driver-video-intel-fast-i830-2.7.1-0.1mdv2009.1.x86_64.rpm 5738a6f4ca841700ab566776affe4473 2009.1/SRPMS/x11-driver-video-intel-2.7.1-0.1mdv2009.1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
