@Wayne, do you have any references to a fedora that works? I have not heard
of any. It has existed in fedora 20, fedora 21 and the comming fedora 22
(rawhide).

As far as I understand it do not seem to be the window manger or DE, but I
could of course be wrong.

I just wonder if this is some wierd configuration of X or the drivers that
fedora modify like no other.

So if anyone running fedora or similar and the legacy canvas works
perfectly, please schime in.
