Description Peter Hutterer 2011-10-11 00:50:34 UTC
Description of problem:
copy_classes() in XIQueryDevice is passed a reference to lib->num_classes. A bad prototype for copy_classes() in that file cuts this from (int*) to (int), causing an invalid memory reference inside copy_classes.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libXi-1.4.3-2

How reproducible:
Run "xinput list" on an affected system
