------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
Updated XFree86 packages are available

Updated XFree86 packages that fix two regressions that were present in the
previous XFree86 update are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.

Description:
XFree86 is an implementation of the X Window System, which provides
the core functionality for the Linux graphical desktop.

This update resolves the following regressions:

- A regression in the X server's PCI config space handling code, which
could cause systems with Intel and possibly other video hardware to have
corrupt video or hang, is resolved

- A regression in the xfs font server is resolved

Users of XFree86 should upgrade to these updated packages.
