[Bug 1424980] Re: [ffe] xorg-server 1.17

 

Ask us again when fglrx is ready.  There's not much point guessing if
it'll be in time for the xorg update to be low-risk.

Title:
  [ffe] xorg-server 1.17

Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  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>
