Fixed In Version: xorg-x11-server-1.19.3-11.el7_4.1 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, the colormap and gamma correction code in the xorg server contained a bug that caused the server to terminate unexpectedly with certain graphics devices, notably Citrix VDA, and configurations, notably with the Xinerama extension enabled. In addition, because this code path is executed during normal server initialization, the xorg server sometimes failed to start entirely. With this update, the underlying code has been fixed, and the xorg server runs as expected.
