Bug fixes since 2.7.0:
----------------------
* KMS: Hook up output properties for RANDR, (this allows output
properties to be controlled in the KMS case just as in the UMS
case). [Zhenyu Wang <zhenyu.z.wang@intel.com>]
* Fix multiplication error when computing required batch space.
This could fix any number of cases where the driver did
inexplicable things (due to having computed the wrong
size). [Keith Packard <keithp@keithp.com>]
* Hold reference to video binding table until all rects are
painted. This prevent general chaos in the buffer
manager. [Keith Packard <keithp@keithp.com>]
* Split i915 textured video commands to fit into batch
buffers. Video and 3D setup commands share the same batch
buffer, so without this fix, various problems could occur when
video and 3D clients were both heavily active at the same
time. [Keith Packard <keithp@keithp.com>]
* Fix crash with XV with large virtual display (> 2049). [Albert
Damen <albrt@gmx.net>]
* Provide missing value to 3D_STATE_VERTEX_BUFFERS command. We
don't know that this was causing any problem, but the change
does bring the driver into conformance with what the
specification says the hardware requires here. [Keith Packard
<keithp@keithp.com>]
o Update randrproto, libXrandr and xrandr to 1.3.0
o Update xf86-video-intel to 2.6.3
o Update other less common drivers as needed
o Mark a bunch of un-maintained input drivers ignored
o Update the various slave X server ports as well
- Bump PORTREVISION for all ports depending on libglut since the shlib
version number went from 4 to 3.
- Bump PORTREVISION for all ports depending on libXaw as libXaw.so.8 isn't
installed anymore.
- Couple of ports fixes (mostly missing xorg components added to USE_XORG).
The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).
PR: ports/124340
Submitted by: edwin@
Approved by: portmgr (pav)
- Mark XFree86-4 as DEPRECATED with EXPIRATION_DATE set to 2007-12-25.
I hope that nobody will be bored enough on Christmas to remove them on
that day.
