Subject: Updated: xorg-server-1.11.4-1
Date: Mon, 30 Jan 2012 16:55:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F26CA59.8050000@dronecode.org.uk> (raw)

The following packages have been updated in the Cygwin distribution:

*** xorg-server-1.11.4-1
*** xorg-server-dmx-1.11.4-1

These packages contain XWin and the other X.Org X11 servers.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This release changes the default settings so that the -resize
and -wgl options are turned on by default.  If that causes issues, please let
us know, and either revert to the previous version, or turn off those features
using the -noresize and -nowgl options. (See [2] for help on how to do that)

In addition to upstream fixes [1], this contains the following cygwin-specific
changes since 1.11.4-1:

* Enable RANDR resize (option -resize) by default
* Enable AIGLX (option -wgl) by default
* Ignore bogus WM_DISPLAYCHANGE messages that have 0 bpp (Thanks to Colin
Harrison for patch)
* Avoid WIN_WINDOW_PROP races which could cause a crash during Windows window
destruction (Reported by Rodrigo Medina)
* Restore modifier key state when an X window gains focus (Thanks to Oliver
Schmidt for patch)
* RANDR resize didn't occur, in windowed mode, with option -resize, when the
window was maximized or restored. (Thanks to Colin Harrison for patch)
* Fix rrScreenSetSize function pointer mismatch (Thanks to Ryan Pavlik for patch)
* Add Windows 8 to the list of Windows versions we know the name of
