fedora X11 forwarding issue


Here I have a nice post how to open browser window on the remote machine. On fedora 23 that method stopped to work. It was possible to start simple application like xclock, but firefox or chrome.
The problem is in the xorg-x11-drv-intel package. The latest version which is available in the official fedora repo is xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.99.917-19.20151206.fc23 (as for 13 May 2016). Downgrading the package to the previous version fixes the issue.
The latest version of the package which is known to work is xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.99.917-19.20151206.fc23. Lets install it:
sudo dnf install xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.99.917-16.20150729.fc23.x86_64
It would be also nice to lock the package version, so the next time you start updating the system it wont be updated:
sudo dnf install 'dnf-command(versionlock)'
sudo dnf versionlock add xorg-x11-drv-intel

download file now
