Title:
  Xdmx packages missing in hardy

Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “xorg-server” source package in Hardy:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg

  Filed against xserver-xorg, since choosing Xdmx (which is recognized
  correctly) results in an error.

  Hello,

  for some unknown reason the packages xdmx and xdmx-tools are missing in hardy. 
  xdmx provides network distributed X multihead support, a feature i can not find in any other package or software. Please see discussion at [1]. The xdmx packages from gutsy ([2] and [3]) seem to work fine in hardy though. So there's no real reason I can see why the were removed.

  Please provide these packages again in the future.
