Comment 8 for bug 7976

xorg (6.8.1-1ubuntu4) hoary; urgency=low

  * Remove debian/patches/099d*, as it broke UTF-8 locale handling and didn't
    actually fix the xterm manpage at all (closes: Ubuntu#3645).

  * Add patches stolen from the X.Org 6.8.x branch, including:
    + Perform soft resets right on non-r3xx (fd.o#988).
    + Prevent segfault in GLX on certain GL versions (fd.o#1672).
    + Fix server crash when unsetting screensaver attributes (fd.o#1695).
      (fd.o#591).
    + Prevent conflict with certain #defined constants (bool) in xf86cfg
      (fd.o#557).
    + Drag nVidia driver back from XFree86 (via X.Org HEAD) with more hardware
      support, fix for DPMS issues, PCI-Xpress support, DPMS on DVI, cursor
      fixes for NV11, proper console restoration, and Xv syncing on vblank
      (fd.o#1777).
    + Fix a stack overflow in XKB handling within libX11 (fd.o#1459).
    + Fix xmodmap stack overflow (fd.o#1818).
    + Fix from myself to fix panel size derivation when stretching is enabled
      (fd.o#1881, Ubuntu#1218).
    + Include server control keys in macintosh/us XKB definition (fd.o#1872).
    + Actually reset DPMS timer on input (fd.o#792, Ubuntu#3614).
    + Move all the fixes from #000 Fedora to this patch, as they have since
      been approved for 6.8.2.
    - New: debian/patches/000_stolen_from_6.8_branch.diff
    - Removed: debian/patches/000_stolen_from_fedora.diff
    + Large patch from Ben Herrenschmidt rejigging the detection logic for
      many ATI cards; see annotation in patch. Note that this is not yet
      committed, so this patch is subject to change and hasn't yet been folded
      into _6.8_branch.diff. This patch obsoletes #099m.
      - New: debian/patches/000_stolen_from_6.8_branch_benh_ati.diff
      - Updated:
      debian/patches/024_ati_r128_and_radeon_enable_build_without_vgahw.diff
      - Removed: debian/patches/099m_radeon_fwpll_support.diff

  * Remove interrupt handler completely on exit so we don't get lockups
    (closes: Ubuntu#2411).
    + New: debian/patches/025_r128_remove_interrupt_handler.diff

  * Add 1440x900 @ 100Hz modeline for 17" Apple iMacs (closes: Ubuntu#3712).
    + Updated: debian/xserver-xorg.templates,
      debian/989_ubuntu_add_extra_modelines_from_xorg.diff

  * Stop writing out HorizSync and VertRefresh lines to xorg.conf; if it can
    be detected by DDC, then let the driver do that instead of tying us to a
    specific monitor, and if we need to calculate it from the resolution, then
    it's a driver bug that needs fixing.
    + Updated: debian/local/dexconf.

  * First cut at proper ia64 control files (closes: Ubuntu#3817).
    + Updated: debian/MANIFEST.ia64.in, debian/xserver-xorg.install.ia64,
      debian/xlibmesa-dri.install.ia64, debian/xlibmesa-dri-dbg.install.ia64,
      debian/xserver-xorg.docs.ia64

  * Stop shipping damage.h, which is an old preliminary cut at the Damage
    client API; superseded by Xdamage.h.
    + Updated: MANIFEST.*.in, libxdamage-dev.install.

  * Fix link name (Xres->XRes) in libxres1.

  * Make libx11-dev Depend on libxkbfile-dev, and libxp-dev on libxau-dev, as
    they use files from these libraries.

  * Add dmxext.h and dmxproto.h to libdmx-dev.

  * Ship Xorg-debug.1 in xserver-xorg-dbg instead of Xorg-debug.1x (thanks,
    James Troup).
