[Bug 448926] [NEW] specifying "-extension Composite" does not disable composite extension (Ubuntu 8.04)

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xephyr

See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=480737 basically
the same problem.

To reproduce:

1) Start Xephyr with the Composite extension disabled, e.g. `Xephyr :1
-extension Composite`

2) run `xdpyinfo -display :1 | grep Composite` and notice that the
composite extension is still enabled on the nested X server

Applying the patch in the original debian bug report, (basically just
deleting the #ifdef COMPOSITE in kdrive.c) rebuilding xorg-server and
installing the new .deb for xserver-xephyr fixes the problem.  This has
only been tested in Ubuntu 8.04.
