[Bug 1424980] [NEW] [ffe] xorg-server 1.17

 

Public bug reported:

Changes since v1.16:
- Adam continues to strip out stale code and clean up the server. Thousands of lines of unnecessary code have disappeared yet again.
- The modesetting driver has been merged into the server code base, simplifying ongoing maintenance by coupling it to the X server ABI/API release schedule. This now includes DRI2 support (so that GLX works correctly) along with Glamor support (which handles DRI3).
- Lots of Glamor improvements, including a rewrite of the core protocol rendering functions 

I would have uploaded it before feature freeze, but fglrx isn't ready
yet. <again>

** Affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu)
