[elrepo] Announcement: Updated/New EL6 xorg-x11-drv-intel, libdrm, mesa, vaapi, development, utilities, and dependencies - Extras Release

[Phil Schaffner]

Announcing the release of xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.17.0-1, libdrm-2.4.27-1, 
mesa-dri-drivers-7.11-12.1, and vaapi-driver-intel-1.0.15-2 packages; 
along with development and build dependency packages; into the EL6 
elrepo-extras repository.  See the following pages:

Fedora and Mandriva SRPMS were used as the basis for packages not 
currently included in EL6.

These packages have been built as the result of the following RFEs:

http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=133
http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=203

Note that there is a known issue with the Mesa packages, as noted in the 
following bug report.  Users who encounter a segfault in glXSwapBuffers 
should try the testing packages described there.

xorg-x11-drv-intel contains an Intel integrated graphics video driver
for the Xorg implementation of the X Window System.

libdrm is a runtime library for Direct Rendering Manager (DRM), a
kernel-level device driver that provides support for the Direct
Rendering Infrastructure (DRI).

Mesa provides 3D drivers and libraries that have been rebuilt for the 
latest xorg-x11-drv-intel and libdrm packages.

Video Acceleration API (VAAPI) comprises the libva library and 
vaapi-driver-intel, and implements the API specification. It enables and 
provides access to graphics hardware (GPU) acceleration for video 
processing.  The Intel driver for VAAPI was split and moved into its own 
repository (vaapi/intel-driver) with this release.

As some these packages will provide updated versions of packages from 
the base EL6 distribution, they are available from the elrepo-extras 
repository.

Users should note that these packages will overwrite certain base EL6 
distribution packages, and that the EPEL repository is required to 
satisfy a dependency for llvm-libs for Mesa.

Please report any issues through the bug tracker.

Thank you,

The ELRepo Team.
