From: "Yaakov (Cygwin/X)" <yselkowitz@users.sourceforge.net> To: cygwin-xfree-announce@cygwin.com Subject: [1.7] Updated: xorg-server-1.6.0 and more Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2009 01:30:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <4A42C4A0.4090401@users.sourceforge.net> (raw) I have updated the Cygwin/X xorg-server to 1.6.0 for Cygwin 1.7. Please note the major upstream changes in this version: * XEvIE extension support has been removed. Therefore, libXevie and libxcb-xevie are deprecated and will soon be removed. * In windowed (desktop) mode, -br (black background with mouse cursor hidden until XDefineCursor() is first called) is now the default. The old behaviour can be obtained with the -retro flag. The following new patches have been applied to this release: * added Hebrew keyboard layout detection. * added more clipboard debugging messages. * fixed numeric keypad input. * reverted upstream clipboard change that wreaked havoc with other applications monitoring the clipboard (e.g. MS Office Clipboard, VNC). Together with a new release comes updates to some X.Org libraries: inputproto 1.5.1 libxcb 1.2 libICE 1.0.5 libX11 1.2 libXext 1.0.5 libXfont 1.4.0 libXi 1.2.1 libXrandr 1.3.0 pixman 0.14.0 xcb-proto 1.4 xcb-util 0.3.4 xextproto 7.0.5 xtrans 1.2.3 randrproto 1.3.0 The newest versions of libX11 and libxcb are required for xorg-server-1.6.0, and they must both be updated to 1.2 simultaneously. All other X.Org libraries, save those just deprecated, have been rebuilt for Cygwin 1.7 with gcc-4.3.
