    An update that has two recommended fixes can now be installed.

    Description:

    This update for sax2 provides the following fixes:

    - No longer use 'vesa' driver for a special combination of
    vendor/device/subvendor/ subdevice of i845 GPU used by IBM. This is no
    longer needed with the KMS driver meanwhile used on SLE 11. Use 'intel'
    driver for this hardware instead. (bsc#961731)

    - Check if the driver that's requested is really installed on the system.
    This is useful when starting SaX2 from a running X session. (bsc#952013)
