Change logs for xorg source package in Karmic

  • xorg (1:7.4+3ubuntu10) karmic-proposed; urgency=low
    
      * local/Failsafe/failsafeXServer:  Since dexconf no longer produces
        an xorg.conf, it will neither generate a failsafe xorg.conf, so now
        we just generate one directly.  Otherwise X won't start a failsafe
        session properly.
        (LP: #477149)

  • xorg (1:7.4+3ubuntu9) karmic-proposed; urgency=low
    
      * Restore 60x11-common_localhost.  I dropped this before because the
        file was not in git so assumed it was stray.  On further review I
        see this was intentionally added, just not to git, and was not stray.
        (LP: #340807)
      * control:  Add Vcs-git tags

  • xorg (1:7.4+3ubuntu7) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * Remove stray 60x11-common_localhost and dexconf.patch from prior upload.

  • xorg (1:7.4+3ubuntu6) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * apport/source_xorg.py: Do not file bug if VirtualBox is in use, since
        it provides its own video driver.
      * vars.*: Add explicit dependency on xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse to
        ensure it stays in main.
        (LP: #407816)
    
     -- Bryce Harrington <email address hidden>   Mon, 19 Oct 2009 18:52:55 -0700
  • xorg (1:7.4+3ubuntu5) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * control: Move xserver-xorg dependency on evdev after -input-all.
        Otherwise only evdev is installed by default.

  • xorg (1:7.4+3ubuntu4) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * debian/local/debian-x11-keymap.fdi: Do not check for existing
        input.xkb.layout property; this was only set by the previous
        10-keymap.fdi, which got disabled together with hal-setup-keymap.
        Directly check for input.keys capabilities, to make the fdi
        independent. This restores proper X.org keyboard layout setting
        from console-setup. (LP: #375618, again)

  • xorg (1:7.4+3ubuntu3) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * control: Change the gdm Breaks to match our version.
    
     -- Timo Aaltonen <email address hidden>   Tue, 30 Jun 2009 23:03:37 +0300
  • xorg (1:7.4+3ubuntu2) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * control: Add Conflicts/Replaces hal (<= 0.5.12+git20090626-0ubuntu1)
        because xserver-xorg ships the callout script now (and the fdi file
        too).

  • xorg (1:7.4+3ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
        - apport/xorg-server-core.py, x11-common.install, x11-common.links:
          + apport hook for xorg-server crashes
        - control:
          + Add xqbiff (<= 0.75-4) to the list of x11-common Conflicts.
          + Add a dependency to x11-common for each binary built to save
            disk/livecd space.
          + Move xfonts-scalable to Recommends.
        - local/Failsafe/*, x11-common.install:
          + Bulletproof-X.
        - local/Xsession:
          + If ~/.xsession-errors is bigger than 0.5MiB, truncate it to the last
            0.5MiB to avoid having it grow indefinitively. (This does not happen
            with gdm anyway since gdm cleans the file on login).
        - local/dexconf:
          + Add extra bits for ps3fb xorg.conf.
          + dexconf: Bring Device back to the Screen-section, nvidia-settings
            and aticonfig need that.
          + Add customizations to detect if running in KVM/VBOX environment
            and specify the driver, H/V rates, DefaultDepth, etc.
        - local/xserver-wrapper.c:
          + Stop handling -config specifically in the wrapper, as Xorg now
            handles this itself.
        - rules:
          + Symlink the doc directories to x11-common, explicitly remove the
            doc directories on upgrade for the now symlinked doc
            directories, to save disk/livecd space.
        - scripts/vars.*:
          + Don't include radeonhd in video-all.
        - scripts/vars.i386:
          + Add geode to video-all.
        - scripts/vars.lpia:
          + Copied from vars.i386.
        - x11-common.postinst.in, postrm.in, preinst.in:
          + Remove old configuration files.
        - xserver-xorg.postinst.in:
          + Migrate psb users to vesa.
    
    xorg (1:7.4+3) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Call db_stop at the end of xserver-xorg.postinst, otherwise debconf gets
        confused and makes the postinst hang after restarting hal
        (closes: #532623).
    
    xorg (1:7.4+2) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ David Nusinow ]
      * Don't discuss removal of xserver-xorg in its description.
        It remains tied to -core at this point. (closes: #523630).
      * Add libgl1-mesa-dri to the depends of the xorg package to ensure that
        it gets pulled in even if Recommends are disabled
      * Make xorg depend on xorg-docs-core and move xorg-docs to be a
        suggests.  This makes for a slimmer default while providing the
        necessary manpages that we expect to be present on every install
        (closes: #388308).
    
      [ Julien Cristau ]
      * Update the NEWS entry for xserver-xorg 1:7.4+1 to include a warning about
        keycode changes breaking Xmodmaps (closes: #523562).  Thanks, Manoj
        Srivastava!
      * Restart hal from xserver-xorg.postinst.  hal's trigger gets run too early,
        when console-setup is not yet configured, so it doesn't pick up the keymap
        correctly (closes: #524076).
      * Mention the requirement for a CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV-enabled kernel in
        xserver-xorg.NEWS.
      * Get rid of the remaining xserver-xorg debconf question (Bus ID).
        Detection of the primary device should happen in the kernel and/or X
        server.  With this change, we don't generate any xorg.conf anymore.
      * On upgrade, remove leftover conffile from beforelight (closes: #454219).
      * Add a console-setup-mini alternative to xserver-xorg's Depends
        (closes: #527124).
      * xsfbs: don't call dpkg --print-installation-architecture
        (closes: #531294).
      * Add README.source, and bump Standards-Version to 3.8.1.
      * xsfbs: kill custom readlink function (closes: #498890).  Thanks, Jonas
        Smedegaard!
      * x11-common: drop migration code from xfree86, and related debconf
        templates.
      * Drop support for renicing the X server from the wrapper.  Remove related
        debconf templates and maintainer scripts handling.
      * Don't ship the /usr/X11R6/bin symlink in x11-common.  Break gdm <<
        2.20.7-5.
      * xserver-xorg.preinst: drop migration code from /var/lib/xfree86 to
        /var/lib/x11.
      * xserver-xorg.{pre,post}inst: drop xorg.conf checksum handling.  Stop
        creating an empty xorg.conf in preinst.  Now that we don't run dexconf, we
        don't need to keep a checksum of the config file to know whether the user
        customized it.
      * xserver-xorg.{preinst,postinst,postrm}: stop using /var/lib/x11.
      * control: xserver-xorg doesn't provide infrastructure for managing
        xorg.conf anymore, remove that from the description.
      * Stop depending on sparc-utils.  xserver-xorg.postinst doesn't run any
        detection programs anymore.

      * Bengali added
      * Slovak updated (closes: #523448).
    
    xorg (1:7.4+1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      [ Timo Aaltonen ]
      * scripts/vars.sparc: Remove sunbw2 from video-all, since monochrome
        support has been deleted from xserver 1.6.
      * scripts/vars.*: Drop mouse & kbd from input-all except for non-Linux
        archs.
      * scripts/vars, rules: Remove scripts/vars, hasn't been used since
        it was split.
    
      [ Julien Cristau ]
      * Xsession(5): fix the manpage references.
      * Xwrapper.config(5): X is installed as /usr/bin/X, not /usr/bin/X11R6/X.
      * Use case-insensitive matching when trying to replace obsolete drivers in
        xorg.conf.  Use the C locale to make sure this works as expected.
      * xserver-xorg.postinst: drop duplicate definitions of the debug_echo and
        validate_string_db_input shell functions.
      * dexconf: don't try to get the driver from debconf.
      * xserver-xorg.postinst: drop the code to pick a driver on sparc.  The
        server now autoconfigures sbus devices.
      * As a result of the previous change, remove the
        xserver-xorg/config/device/driver debconf template, and unregister it on
        upgrade.
      * We don't use dmidecode and fbset anymore (they were used for hardware
        detection), so stop adding Recommends on them.
      * dexconf: don't write empty Monitor and Screen sections.
      * dexconf: don't output an InputDevice section for mice.
      * dexconf: don't output an InputDevice section for keyboards.
      * xserver-xorg.postinst: don't configure the keyboard layout.
      * remove keyboard-related debconf templates; unregister them on upgrade.
      * xserver-xorg.templates: don't give an ISA example for the BusID question,
        ISA support has been removed from the server.
      * xserver-xorg.postinst: don't accept BusID values matching "ISA:*".
      * Don't set the UseFBDev option.  Remove the detection code from
        xserver-xorg.postinst, kill the debconf template and unregister it.
      * xserver-xorg.postinst: remove unused input validation functions.  Also
        remove the corresponding debconf templates.
      * Set the BusID in xorg.conf if we find more than one graphics card, to work
        around breakage in post-pciaccess xserver (can't find the primary PCI
        device).
      * xserver-xorg.postinst: allow setting the PCI domain in the BusID string.
      * Install a callout and an fdi file to read the configured keymap from
        /etc/default/console-setup, and set the corresponding keymap for keyboards
        in hal.  Both stolen from Ubuntu's hal package.
      * Depend on hal (>= 0.5.12~git20090406) for hal-set-property --direct.
      * Depend on console-setup (>= 1.29) to handle upgrades from lenny.
      * Add a NEWS entry to document the changes regarding configuration of input
        devices.
      * Re-add rgb.txt, some clients still use it, even though the server doesn't.
      * Upload to unstable.
    
      [ David Nusinow ]
      * Add an example xorg.conf to /usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg/examples.
        This will give people something to copy from and modify for their own
        configurations
