RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
Since the introduction of Gnome 3.x the customer faces a severe Problem with a Military Grade visualisation Software called GoGlobalUX. This software needs "gnome-session --disable-acceleration-check" feature enabled to work with Gnome. This Parameter has been introduced in version 3.16 already. So the customer want either gnome-session 3.16 to be a part of RHEL7 or enable the --disable-acceleration-check feature in gnome-session 3.14.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.14

How reproducible:
Not Applicable. There is no specific steps given by the customer to reproduce the actual issue.

Steps to Reproduce:
Not Applicable.

Actual results:
The customer faces a severe Problem with a Military Grade visualisation Software called GoGlobalUX due to gnome-session 3.14.

Expected results:
Needs gnome-session 3.16 to be integrated with RHEL 7 or enable the --disable-acceleration-check feature in gnome-session 3.14.

Additional info:

Support for --disable-acceleration-check would be a solution for those who want to use GNOME on a RHEL7 box over X2Go, VNC, NX, etc.

But disabling the acceleration check won't make it work automatically on platforms that don't support OpenGL.  It just disables the check, the code still requires the features.
