The X.Org Server reference X11 server implementation.
Recent Activity
- randr: add new interface to allow delaying lease responses
Xaver Hugl: Add a new interface to _rrScrPriv to make it possible for the server to delay answering a lease request, at the cost of blocking the client. - xwayland: Fix a race condition when setting up input devices
Povilas Kanapickas: The compositor may send us wl_seat and its capabilities before sending e.g. - xwayland: Implement support for touchpad gestures
Povilas Kanapickas: The implementation is relatively straightforward because both wayland and Xorg use libinput semantics for touchpad gestures.
Activity Earlier In The Year
- meson: add subproject fallback for libxcvt
Simon Ser: Depends on: - xwayland/glx: Enable sRGB fbconfigs
Adam Jackson: We turn this on if the GL underneath us can enable GL_FRAMEBUFFER_SRGB. - modesetting: Fix dirty updates for sw rotation
Patrik Jakobsson: Rotation is broken for all drm drivers not providing hardware rotation support. - ephyr/glamor: Port to EGL
Adam Jackson: There's no real benefit to using GLX, and the other DDXes are using EGL already, so let's converge on EGL so we can concentrate the fixes in one place. We go to some effort to avoid being the thing that requires libX11 here. - modesetting: Add option for non-vsynced flips for "secondary" outputs
Mario Kleiner: Whenever an unredirected fullscreen window uses pageflipping for a DRI3/Present PresentPixmap() operation and the X-Screen has more than one active output, multiple crtc's need to execute pageflips. - Drop DMX DDX
Povilas Kanapickas: It turns out xdmx currently crashes when any client attempts to use GL and it has been in such state for about 14 years. - modesetting: Allow Present flips with mismatched stride on atomic drivers
Mario Kleiner: When using DRI3+Present with PRIME render offload, sometimes there is a mismatch between the stride of the to-be-presented Pixmap and the frontbuffer. - xfree86/cvt: Drop cvt utility
Olivier Fourdan: The cvt utility is now replaced by the standalone version found in libxcvt, no need to build the one in xfree86 anymore. - xfree86: Use libxcvt
Olivier Fourdan: Replace the local implementation of the VESA CVT standard timing modelines generator with the one from libxct to avoid code duplication. - xwayland: Use libxcvt
Olivier Fourdan: Xwayland is using a copy of the CVT generator found in Xorg.
X.Org Server Release Tags
- xfree86: Bump ABI_VIDEODRV_VERSION to 25.2
Michel Dänzer: This gives out of tree drivers a fighting chance to build against both sides of - glamor: unifdef XORG_VERSION_CURRENT
Adam Jackson: This is always true now that glamor is in-tree. - Xephyr: Require xcb-shm version 1.9.3 or newer
Alexander Volkov: It's needed for FD-passing. - xwayland: bump wayland-protocols version to 1.7
Olivier Fourdan: Xwayland support for pointer locking in confinement requires wayland-protocols version 1.7 or later. - Bump version to 1.19.0
Keith Packard - Bump version to 1.18.99.2
Keith Packard: Prepare for 1.19 RC1 - XQuartz: Fix default CFBundleVersion
Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia: m4/shell variable name collision broke the case when the configure option was not used - Bump version to 1.17.99.901 (1.18 RC1)
Keith Packard - Require randrproto version 1.5.0 or newer
Keith Packard - Mark development version for 1.18

- xquartz: Remove support for building for i386
Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia - xwayland: Add wheel axis to relative pointer
Olivier Fourdan: The relative pointer only has 2 axis, if we want to route the mouse wheel events to that device, we need to add the axis definition, similar to what is done for the absolute pointer. - xwayland: Add -verbose option as in xfree86
Misha Gusarov: Makes it easier to debug Xwayland problems. - dix: Add optional terminate delay
Olivier Fourdan: When the command line option "-terminate" is used, it could be interesting to give it an optional grace period to let the Xserver running for a little longer in case a new connection occurs. This adds an optional parameter to the "-terminate" command line option for this purpose. v2: Use a delay in seconds instead of milliseconds (Martin Peres) v3: Clarify man page entry, ensure terminateDelay is always >= 0, simplify TimerFree(). - xquartz: Remove support for Leopard and earlier versions of macOS
Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia - xquartz: Remove support for Tiger and earlier versions of macOS
Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia - xquartz: Remove support for SnowLeopard and earlier versions of macOS
Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia - xquartz: Remove support for Mountain Lion and earlier versions of macOS
Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia - xwayland: Add PtrFeedback to the touch device
Olivier Fourdan: Trying to change the acceleration/threshold on Xwayland cannot work, and the corresponding handler xwl_pointer_control() is a no-op. - meson: Make sure XKM_OUTPUT_DIR has a trailing slash
Michel Dänzer: RunXkbComp passes an invalid file path to xkbcomp if there's no trailing slash.
