The author of the int10 code looked at the VBIOS POSTing code
in DOSEMU to get some initial idea on how to POST a VBIOS.
To give credit to the DOSEMU Team for this inspiration a comment
was added to the code which could suggest that code from the
GPLed DOSEMU was directly incorporated into this code.
This patch should clearify the situation.
Licensing issues of these files include:
- They claim to be licensed under the GPL, yet we haven't allowed that in the
xserver repository in the past.
- They refer the user to the top of the tree for GPL license text, yet it isn't
there.
- They claim to be derived from the (MIT-licensed) ati kdrive code, yet don't
follow the licensing terms of those files.
delivery of events to windows and clients.
This is tentative. It's likely that an additional last-resort hook will
be necessary for code that calls TryClientEvents or WriteEventsToClient
directly. It's also possible that new xace machinery will be necessary
to classify events and pull useful resource ID's out of them.
The failure case also needs some thinking through. Should event delivery
"succeed" or should it report undeliverable?
Finally, XKB appears to call WriteToClient to pass events. Sigh.
Note that pciaccess doesn't yet have Net/OpenBSD support, but the relevant
code should go there instead of disconnected code in the X Server.
While here, remove the now-disabled INCLUDE_XF86_NO_DOMAIN from the headers,
and un-disable xf8StdAccResFromOS for those OSes without domain support which
will need it.
over to new system.
Need to update documentation and address some remaining vestiges of
old system such as CursorRec structure, fb "offman" structure, and
FontRec privates.
This was a bunch of poorly defined resource ranges per OS/platform combination
which were supposed to represent what regions could potentially have resources
allocated into them.
Debian bug #272368http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=272368
In certain locales, some characters from some TrueType fonts were not
appearing in the Xprint postscript output due to the font not being
identified in the postscript output.
The plural version is now static, which is fine since it was only ever called
from within picture post-init anyway. The body of the work is now done with
a one-shot (public) function that operates on a single format at a time.
Composite's automatic redirection is a more general mechanism than the
ad-hoc BS machinery, so it's much prettier to implement the one in terms
of the other. Composite now wraps ChangeWindowAttributes and activates
automatic redirection for windows with backing store requested. The old
backing store infrastructure is completely gutted: ABI-visible structures
retain the function pointers, but they never get called, and all the
open-coded conditionals throughout the DIX layer to implement BS are gone.
Note that this is still not a strictly complete implementation of backing
store, since Composite will throw the bits away on unmap and therefore
WhenMapped and Always hints are equivalent.
The pixman headers have been located under pixman-1/ instead of pixman/ since
around 2007-08-06, and pixman-1.pc has the updated include paths to account
for this.
