RHBA-2006:0327 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
control-center bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated control-center packages that fix various issues are now
available.
Description
GNOME (the GNU Network Object Model Environment) is a graphical desktop
environment. The control-center package provides the GNOME Control Center
utilities, which allow setup and configuration of a system's GNOME
environment (such as the desktop background and theme, the screensaver, the
window manager, system sounds, and mouse behavior). If GNOME is installed,
control-center is required.
These updated packages address a bug wherein auxiliary mice were not
properly configured for left-handed operation when the user has already
configured the desktop for left-handed mode.
All users of control-center should upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat
Network to download and update your packages. To launch the Red Hat

reset their keys for the settings to take place.
