- Remove remaining references to XFree86-Misc options AllowNonLocalModInDev
and DisableModInDev.
- Remove remaining references to grab-breaking keys & associated options.
- Update description of Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to new -retro/DontZap defaults.
- Add description of new options -modalias and -showopts.
- Update list of modules loaded by default.
- Update input driver references from keyboard to evdev & kbd.
- Update list of driver man pages to match xf86-*-* drivers with man pages.
- Add See Also section to exa man page.
and various formatting/typo/etc. fixes.
The Xorg/xorg.conf sections on input device selection could use further
updates to better match the current state of HAL-enabled configuration.
This consists of two parts:
In the implicit server layout, ignore those drivers when looking for a core
device.
And after finishing the server layout, run through the list of devices and
remove any that use mouse or kbd.
AEI is mutually exclusive with the kbd and mouse drivers, so pick either - or.

Remove AEI check from configImpliedLayout as the setting isn't actually parsed
at this point anyway (written by Sasha Hlusiak).
Resurrect checkInput() and check for devices there if AEI is false (this also
creates the default devices if required).
Set AllowEmptyInput to enabled by default if hotplugging is enabled.
Use __libmansuffix__ instead of __oslibmansuffix__ which isn't getting
replaced, and rewrap some text to get __xservername__ replaced in the
description of Option "Accel" (cpp doesn't like the preceding quote).
Right now we default to "all" which gives us a situation much like before,
but when the "typical" option is implemented, we can change the default and
reduce the number of visuals the GLX module bloats the X server with.
Major stylistic cleanups, greatly expanded cross-reference ("SEE ALSO")
section and some typo fixes.
This patch by Branden Robinson. Forward-ported by Fabio M. Di Nitto.
This provides a new option, UseDefaultFontPath. This option is enabled by
default, and causes the X server to always append the default font path
(defined at compile time) to the font path for the server. This will allow
people to specify additional font paths if they want without breaking
their font path, thus hopefully avoiding ye olde "fixed front" problem.
Because this option is a ServerFlag option, the ServerFlags need to be
processed before the files section of the config file, so swap the order
that they are processed.
Provide default modules that may be overrided easily. Previously the
server would load a set of default modules, but only if none were
specified in the xorg.conf, or if you didn't have a xorg.conf at all. This
patch provides a default set and you can add only the "Load" instructions
to xorg.conf that you want without losing the defaults. Similarly, if you
don't want to load a module that's loaded by default, you can add "Disable
modulename" to your xorg.conf (see man xorg.conf in this release for
details). This allows for a minimal "Modules" section, where the user only
need specify what they want to be different. See bug #10541 for more.
The list of default modules is taken from the set loaded by default when
there was a xorg.conf containing no "Modules" section.
A potential problem for some users is that some users disable a module,
most notably DRI, by commenting out the "Load" line in their xorg.conf.
This needs to be changed to an uncommented "Disable" line, as DRI is
loaded by default.
- Added -extension & +extension to Xserver man page
- Changed Xorg synopsis from X11R6 to X11R7
- Clarified Xorg ancestry description
- Moved Solaris to free/Open Source OS list
- Removed references to MetroLink module loader & getconfig
- Converted (1) to (__appmansuffix__) in a few more places
- Replaced http://www.freedesktop.org/cvs/ with http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/
As discussed on the mailing list, people would rather have an X command-line
option to print the module path so installers can know where to put modules,
rather than the installers using `pkg-config --variable=moduledir xorg-server`,
since some distros choose not to install xorg-server.pc.
Get rid of almost all uses of these definitions. They're still defined for
delinquent out-of-tree drivers, and also for the Mesa build. As well as
for miinitext.c. But largely gone.
a first pass of doxygen documentation of EXA. This removes the
corresponding pieces of exa-driver.txt, which were becoming stale.
Hopefully the documentation will stay much more up-to-date this way.
Many thanks to jbarnes for writing exa-driver.txt which was used a lot
in writing this documentation.
Dist helper shell scripts.
Dist XAA.HOWTO and a few more unused C files.
Dist xorgconf.cpp.
Fix DIST_EXTRA typo.
Clean yacc and lex generated files only during make maintainer-clean as we
don't expect users to have those tools installed.
