InputAttributes largely decide which configuration values get merged from the xorg.conf.d snippets. While they are available in the config backend, they are not available for any other callers of NewInputDeviceRequest(). Drivers implementing driver-side hotplugging do not have access to these attributes and cannot have xorg.conf.d snippets specific to dependent devices. For example, the following case cannot work right now: Section "InputClass" MatchProduct "Wacom" Option "PressCurve" "0 0 100 100" ... EndSection Section "InputClass" MatchProduct "Wacom" MatchProduct "eraser" Option "PressCurve" "10 10 50 50" ... EndSection The second section is not triggered, as the wacom driver cannot supply the InputAttributes to NewInputDeviceRequest(). Add the attributes to the IDevRec and merge them into the InputInfoRec to make them accessible in the driver. This changes the ABI for input drivers.

X Server The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into. Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders. For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the following article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_server All questions regarding this software should be directed at the Xorg mailing list: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Please submit bug reports to the Xorg bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=xorg The master development code repository can be found at: git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/xserver http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver For patch submission instructions, see: http://www.x.org/wiki/Development/Documentation/SubmittingPatches For more information on the git code manager, see: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/GitPage
