X Server 1.9 Window Closing After RandR 1.4 Pull

,----[ Quote ]
| There's good news for the Ubuntu camp and 
| others releasing in the September-October 
| time-frame: development work on X.Org 
| Server 1.9 is still going as planned for 
| an August release and its merge window is 
| about to be closed. In the past it's been 
| tough for the X.Org project to release 
| server updates in a timely manner that's 
| on schedule, but continuing from their 
| X.Org Server 1.8 success, 1.9 is shaping 
| up nicely too.

| Gallium3D branch that provides support for

Closing the xserver 1.9 merge window 

,----[ Quote ]
| Ok, so I was supposed to do this last 
| Friday, but I wanted to get 'a few more 
| patches' merged in before closing things 
| down. And, some of those patches were more 
| of an adventure in merging than others. 
| I'm hoping the devPrivates adventure will 
| be resolved this week; as expected, many 
| bugs were found after that code landed and 
| I'm grateful to those of you who helped 
| find and fix them quickly.
| 
| [...]
| 
| Beyond that, I'd like for people to 
| consider the tree closed to large-scale 
| changes as we prepare for the 1.9 release. 
| There are a couple of additional cleanup 
| patch sequences floating around and I 
| think we should plan on leaving those for 
| 1.10 unless they fix actual bugs.

ATI Catalyst 10.5 Comes with Support for SLED/SLES 11 SP1

,----[ Quote ]
| The latest ATI graphics drivers are here to
| satisfy the needs of the Linux gamers out
| there. ATI Catalyst 10.5 comes with
| preliminary support for SUSE Linux Enterprise
| Desktop and Server 11 Service Pack 1. It also
| fixes quite a lot of Linux-specific issues and
| bugs. Other than that, itâs just a regular
| evolutionary update, nothing to write home
| about.
