problems on may systems which don't support APM standby and might not
be required as according to the APM specs the chips should receive
enough power to retain its state.
- Print out power state change requests to log file in all verbosity
levels.
- Don't change server state if no driver PM function is registered.
(Bugzilla #2279)
relied on the generic VGA layer to restore text console fonts for us
when shutting down the server or VT switching back to the text console.
This has worked rather well but it has some downsides on Linux: a. Many
people use fbdev as console text mode. In this case it is not necessary
to save/restore console fonts as the console is running in graphics
mode anyway. b. Some architectures don't have a fbdev console but
require a full POST of even the primary card (ie. IA64). This posting
has to take place before we even have a chance to save anything.
Therefore the fonts we save are the once written to the chip by POST,
not what has been programmed by the user. c. Certain chipsets utilize
the BIOS to perform mode setting. This may interfer with the vga
save/restore font function in a strange way. It would therefore be
preferrable to let the OS - which has been used to set up the font in
the first place - take care of saving/restoring the data. I will attach
a patch which will do so for Linux. To make this fully functional a
small patch needs to be applied to the Linux kernel. To disable this
feature add: #define DoOSFontRestore NO to your host.def. (Bugzilla
#2277)
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=1530): Fix the current
implementation to make it possible to slow down the mouse pointer or
use arbitrary fractions (without running into rounding error issues).
The change is using the same method of preserving rounding errors that
the exponential method is already using. Patch by Jan Brunner

- bug fix: pointerMsg -> keyboardMsg in auto-configuration code.
- make the 'kbd' driver the default for autoconfiguration everywhere.
compiled in or not.
Removed stale make variable.
Updated xaaWrapper.c: Under certain circumstances the accel path was not
used when possible. Removed some debugging stuff and stale code that
had been commented out.
Check if maps are really installed before attempting to list them.
Avoid PIO access on IA64. Some IA64 machine check if legacy ports outside
the VGA range are accessed. The ATi driver however does this to probe
for ISA Mach8/32/64. Since no IA64 has ISA slots this restriction
should not be relevant to the user.
Avoid recursive calls of xf86scanpci(). This function normally detects that
it has been called before by checking if the PCI structure is filled
out. So far if this was not the case (because PCI probing has failed
for some reason) the function is traversed again. With the chipset
specific PCI bus probing this can lead to an endless recursive loop as
the post-probing code calls xf86scanpci() from within this function.
The OS specific PCI code for Linux worked only if bus 0 was populated as it
checked for the presence of /proc/bus/pci/00. Fixed to check for
/proc/bus/pci/<bus_to_look_for> instead.
Remove old obsolete include/extensions/damage.h.
Include srvrv_ctrl(xfree86) in macintosh US XKB symbol file so VT switching
works again on mac (#1872).
Remove out of place #define's of printf to xf86printf. This definition
should only be in xfree86/os-support/xf86_libc.h
update references to xf86site.def in comments (Bug #1827).
fix kbd driver for wskbd protocol and pure wscons console driver (Bug
#1825).
don't add '-4' to generated default file name (bug #1826).
typo in resource name (XFree86 bug #1300, X.org bug #1825)
Updating to EDID 1.3. (Bugzilla# 1490, Jay Cotton, Egbert Eich).
Removing unneeded code.
Fixed KGA handling for i810. KGA handling for chips derived from C&T chips
is slightly different. The changes make the code consistent with the
C&T (chips) and i740 drivers.
XScreenSaverSetAttributes() followed by XScreenSaverUnsetAttributes().
Caused by missing FreeResource() in XScreenSaverUnsetAttributes().
Removing unused DDC sections that caused misinterpretation of DDC data due
to a missing break statement in a switch.
Fixed typo: #if <-> #ifdef.

Added support for IBM space saver keyboard (Stefan Dirsch). Added support
for Cherry CyMotion Master XPress (Marcus Schaefer).
Change order of SetDisplayDevice(), HWRestore(), UnbindGART() and
RestoreBIOSMemSize() to be exactly opposite to the Save procedure in
EnterVT() (Matthias Hopf, Alan Hourihane).
Fix text mode restauration by removing the assumption that the register
which determines which head is programmed is set. to the active head by
the BIOS (Mark Vojkovich).
When I wrote the resource code 5 years ago I made some assumptions which
turned out to be false: I've assumed that the bus number of the PCI
hostbridge would be the PCI bus the bridge links to. This is not
correct. Fixing this assumption is not easy. However I hope that the
attached patch will make the system work regardless as it 'ignores'
host bridges from which the target bus is not known. This should not
matter at all as we really don't care about host bridges (unless we
have bridge specific code which retrieves information about the
bridge).
Fixed server crash on reset when a structure allocated in PreInit() was
freed on CloseScreen().
Fixed ring buffer lock ups that happened because the structure that
contained ringbuffer data was not zeroed after allocation.
Fixed numerous warnings due to signed unsigned comparisons.
programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/nv/nv_driver.c:
(NVBacklightEnable): Changed the order in which the sequencer registers
and the backlight control registers are written. The sequencer control
register need to be written first otherwise DPMS screen blanking

libXau static library PIC so it can be linked into toolkits that would
like to wrap its functionality.
version called the driver directly and too late.
Unblank secondary screen explicitely. Don't rely on the value read during
register save as the BIOS have blanked the secondary head.
Checking if server isn't switched away before calling sync. Sanity check
for possible bugs in aother areas of the code.
Fixing default amount of of allocated video memory from AGP for i810: Use
16MB if less than 192MB are installed else use 24MB (Matthias Hopf).

code is practically untouched since xatitv (which was a standalone test
program). However, it all worked and was debugged over long period of
