X Server 1.8 Snapshot 2 Released

,----[ Quote ]
| With there being just more than three months 
| left until the planned release of X Server 
| 1.8, Keith Packard has just issued the second 
| snapshot for those interested in trying out 
| this developmental X.Org server. The first X 
| Server 1.8 snapshot came two months ago, but 
| this second snapshot is arriving later than 
| expected after having to deal with some bugs.

Wayland Updated With KMS Page-Flipping Ioctl

,----[ Quote ]
| In separate commits, a few dozen lines of code 
| dealing with Cairo's surface code was also re-
| factored. The Wayland Display Server still 
| will not work with all of the latest mainline 
| packages in an "out of the box" configuration, 
| but we're getting closer to a point where more 
| Linux desktop users can experiment with this 
| unique display server that fully leverages 
| kernel mode-setting and other newer 
| technologies.

| "Forty percent of servers run Windows, 60 percent run Linux," he said. "How
| are we doing? Forty is less than 60, so I don't like it. ... We have some
| work to do."
