Description Thomas Winischhofer 2005-07-05 13:39:43 UTC

The SiS DRI client driver (sis_screen.c) forgets to clear an engine packet,
which might therefore contain random data when sent to the engine. The possible
consequences are self-explainatory.

Fix is in MESA, see
http://cvs.freedesktop.org/mesa/Mesa/src/mesa/drivers/dri/sis/sis_screen.c?r1=1.11.2.1&r2=1.11.2.2

(Why is there no "MESA" category for "component"?)

fixed with Mesa import
