This release also fixes several outstanding + issues, of course. + + * RELEASE NOTE: I expect this release to continue to have Int10 problems on + the IA-64 architecture, and for the Radeon 3D acceleration to continue to + be broken due to GCC 3.2 issues. XFree86 4.3.0 should resolve these + issues, and packaging of XFree86 4.3.0 is underway; please see + <http://lists.debian.org/debian-x/> for more information. + + * patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD: + (xc/lib/Xrender/{Glyph.c,Xrenderint.h}): + + Render uses int for 32 bits; Xlib uses long. This matters on Alpha. + (Keith Packard) + (xc/lib/Xrender/Glyph.c): + + XRenderFreeGlyphs wasn't sending the glyphset. (Keith Packard) + + CompositeGlyphs functions were re-using overwritten data and trashing + the output buffer. (Keith Packard) + + CompositeText{8,16,32} weren't switching glyphsets at the right time. + (Keith Packard) (Closes: #181815) + + Was miscomputing request length for String16 and String32. (Keith + Packard) + (xc/lib/Xrender/Xrender.c): + + Skip unexpected data in QueryFormats. Deal with broken X servers a bit + better. (Keith Packard) + (xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/i810/i830_driver.c): + Workaround for BIOSes which force 1MB stolen memory, and agpgart related + fix (#5300, Abraham vd Merwe). (Closes: #168469) + + * patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD_ati_driver: + (xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/ati/r128_dri.c): Second stage of + mesa-4 merge. (Not a very useful commit message; fixes hardware scissor + handling when VT switching with DRI enabled.) (Closes: #185057) + + * patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD_savage_driver: + + (savage_video): Remove whitespace in front of pre-processor directives + (Marc La France) + + (savage_cursor.c,savage_dga.c,savage_driver.c,savage_driver.h): + - Fixed VBE EDID read: due to a missing register setting read ended in + endless loop on certain systems (Egbert Eich). + - Savage driver: disable HW cursor on stretched LCD displays, let + SaveScreen and DGA test if HW cursor is on before disabling/reenabling + it (Egbert Eich). + + (savage_driver.c): + - Initializing clock ranges in several drivers to get rid of the + annoying 'scaled from 0.0 MHz' message in xf86PrintModes() (Egbert + Eich). + - fixed typo in savage driver (Egbert Eich) + - Reinstate the VBEInit() call in the savage driver's PreInit(). This + appears to fix a problem on some Savage MX platforms (#5649, Mike + Harris). (Closes: #182788) + + * patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD_xman: + + (buttons.c, handler.c): + * Initialize structure field man_globals->search_widget to NULL in xman + code, the help message states that pressing Ctrl+S in the help window + has no effect, but in some cases it would crash xman. (Paulo C�sar + Pereira de Andrade) + + (man.c): + * Fix compiler warning. (Torrey T. Lyons) + + * patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD_xtt: + + (xttfuncs.c): removed extraneous hunk of patch that grabbed change to + font renderer registration, for which the support code hasn't been + backported (Closes: #182687) + + (xttcconv.c): Fix an "xtt" font backend module crash that shows up on + Linux/PPC, related to an invalid code converter module being loaded + because of a broken string comparison in xttconv.c (#A.1647, Chisato + Yamauchi, Daisuke MASATSUNA).

(Keith Packard) (Closes: #39964) + * patch #084: new; fix typo in patch to XF86Config.man + * patch #454: new; turn off Int10 support for IA-64, apparently when this is + mixed with GCC 3.2, bad things happen, per Bdale Garbee + * patch #500: resynced with #454 + * patch #910: new; change X server's "can't find default font" and "can't + find cursor font" error messages to whack users with a big fat clue + + * debian/MANIFEST.*: updated to reflect new libxkbfile_pic.a object + * debian/*.conffiles: deleted; generation of these files is now handled + automatically by dh_installdeb when DH_COMPAT >= 4 + * debian/*.debugfiles: renamed to *.install + * debian/compat: new file, implementing debhelper recommended best practice + for setting compatibility level; compat-level bumped from 2 to 4: this + means that, among other things, dh_installdeb creates DEBIAN/conffiles + files for me, ensuring they stay in sync with what is shipped + (Closes: #182505) + * debian/control: + - bump Standards-Version from 3.5.7 to 3.5.10 (no changes required) + - Build-Depend on flex-old instead of flex, since flex recently broke + backwards compatibility (fixes FTBFS on any box with a recent flex) + - minor tweak to xserver-xfree86's extended description + * debian/local/FAQ: + - removed reference to XFree86 FAQ; in the words of upstream + <URL:http://www.xfree86.org/FAQ/>, "The old XFree86 FAQ has been removed + because it is too out of date to be useful." + - added new question: "I just upgraded the X server and it doesn't work; + also, I'm using Matrox's proprietary "mga_hal" driver module or NVidia's + proprietary "nvidia" driver module; what's going on?" + - added new question: "I'm using a Macintosh, and while the keyboard works + correctly on a virtual terminal, in X it's all messed up.

IA-64 users, put your "xserver-xfree86" package on hold, or use + "xserver-xfree86-dbg" instead, until someone is found to patch + xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/loader/elf*. + + * patch #000_post421: resynced with xf-4_2-branch as of 2003-02-18 + + Fix problems with earlier fix [...] to intermittent XDarwin crash when + changing cursors with dual processors (Torrey T. Lyons). + + * patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD: + + removed patches to Xlib (xc/lib/X11); see below + + (xc/config/cf/Library.tmpl): update and add targets to support proper + static compilation of Xlib (Egbert Eich) + + (xc/config/util/{gccmdep.cpp,mergelib.cpp,mkdirhier.sh}): add sanity + checks (Egbert Eich) + + (xc/include/Xos_r.h): warning fixes (Marc Aurele La France) + + (xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/loader/{elfloader.c,loader.c}): Make + loader ignore ELF objects that don't define any symbols.

(David Dawes) + - Fix the number of beeps when using AccessX and XKB (#A.1302, Alan + Coopersmith). + - Warning fixes (Marc Aurele La France) + - Don't enter an infinite loop setting a new timer when one expires. + Problem easy to reproduce, press Alt+Shift+NumLock to enable/disable + MouseKeys and it will never stop beeping, even switching to the + console does not stop it. The problem also happens when enabling beeps + in accessx to notice state changes. (Paulo Cesar Pereira de Andrade) + + (xc/programs/Xserver/hw/sun/sunInit.c): Fix SEGV that occurs when Xsun* + runs into an unrecognized framebuffer type (Marc La France). + + (xc/programs/Xserver/os/auth.c): Don't change the authorization data + (and in particular, don't enable local host access) if the X server's + authority file is removed or becomes unreadable while the server is + running (David Dawes, reported by Dietmar Schr�ter). + + (xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/mga/mga_driver.c): Add reporting + of G400/G450 in MGA driver (Andrew C. Aitchison). + + (xc/programs/Xserver/GL/dri/xf86dri.c, + xc/programs/Xserver/GL/glx/glxcmds.c): Add validation for the screen + number parameter received over the wire by the X server's DRI extension + code, and fix some similar checks in the GLX code. This fixes X server + segfaults when an invalid screen value is provided (#A.1434, Felix + K�hling). + + (xc/programs/Xserver/fb/fbpict.c): Fix incorrect datatype for the pixmap + width in fbCompositeSrcAdd_8000x8000(), and add some small optimisations + (#A.1423, Keith Packard). + + (xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/xf86drm.c): Stop + the drm module from creating a world-writable directory in /dev.

Richter). + + (xc/programs/xkbcomp/symbols.c): Fix an xkbcomp bug that prevents a later + definition from specifying actions if the previous definition didn't + (#5471, Joe Moss). + + (xc/programs/xkbcomp/symbols.c,xc/lib/xkbfile/xkbmisc.c): In XFree86 + 4.3, Latin base maps can have many three- and four-level keys. Some of + the keys should behave as 'alphabetic' keys (should depend on the + CapsLock state) and others should be simple 'four level keys'. To + separate these two type of keys, people need to carefully specify a type + for each key in a symbols map. However, carelessness can can be worked + around if xkbcomp itself guesses the type of key. This patch adds + autodetection of four-level types in XKB symbols maps. + + (xc/programs/xkbcomp/misc.c): Xkbcomp has a check that prevents + inclusion of the same partial map in an include statement in different + single layout maps. This made sense before the multilayout mechanism + was added. But now, it means a complete layout can't be composed from + 'single layout' maps if the maps include the same file. Thus, this + check has ben removed. + + (xc/programs/Xserver/xkb/xkb.c): If some LEDs are lighting when one + reloads the XKB keyboard map (using setxkbmap or xf86cfg) the LEDs + become 'frozen' and can't be switched off. The patch fixes this bug. + (#5544, Ivan Pascal). + + (xc/programs/Xserver/xkb/{ddxConfig.c,xkbInit.c}): Fix some memory leaks + in xkb initialization code. (Paulo Cesar Pereira de Andrade) + + (xc/programs/Xserver/xkb/xkbInit.c); + - Fixed some memory leaks. (Egbert Eich) + - Reinstate the X server -xkbdir option, but only when the X server's + real and effective uids are the same (based on #A.1132, Ivan Popov). + - Fix segfault in XkbInitKeyboardDeviceStruct() (David Dawes). + - Fix problem in XkbInitKeyboardDeviceStruct(). Thanks to David Dawes + for telling me about the problem, caused by a previous patch by me. I + also added a comment in the code explaining the reason the strings + need to be duplicated. The problem is that + XkbInitKeyboardDeviceStruct() is an "entry point" for xkb, and the + function arguments are not guaranteed to be allocated, they may point + to static strings, command line parameters, etc. In the worst case, + there will be a "pseudo leak" of six strings that are used only when + the server is initialized; the strings are reachable from + xf86Info.xkbxxx, or equivalent data structure for xwin, xnest, etc. + (Paulo Cesar Pereira de Andrade) + + (xc/programs/xauth/process.c): + - Various warning fixes. (Marc La France) + - Error out if memory cannot be allocated for authfilename. (Egbert + Eich) + - Fix a bug where xauth may write an incomplete authority file and + delete the old one if there is insufficient disk space (#5612, + Harald Hoyer). (Closes: #36184) + + (xc/lib/xkbfile/xkbtext.c): Correct problem when the server prints the + name of a 'private xkb action' in a format that xkbcomp cannot + understand, and was causing problems when calling XkbGetKeyboard (Ivan + Pascal). + + * patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD_ati_driver: + + (xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/ati/atimach64.c): When the mode + on server entry is found to be using composite sync on a Mach64 variant, + turn on the "compositesync" option (Marc La France). + + (xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/ati/{atipreinit.c,ativersion.h, + ativga.c}): Fix atimisc panel support bug that occurs when the mode on + server entry is a VGA mode with large horizontal and/or vertical + blanking pulses (Marc La France). + + * patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD_neomagic_driver: + + Enabling 2D accel in 24-bit for neomagic 2360 and 2380 (Egbert Eich). + + Added support for builtin 1024x480 mode of Sony subnotebooks for + Neomagic driver (Egbert Eich). + + Fixed support for lowRes (320x240) modes in neomagic driver + (Egbert Eich). + + When enabling PCI adapters, also enable their bus mastering capability; + Consequently, deprecate xf86EnablePciBusMaster() (Marc La France). + + Fix 640x480 modes in neomagic driver (Egbert Eich). + + Fix an incorrect check for the "StrangeLockups" option in the neomagic + driver (#5505, Mike Harris). + + * patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD_newport_driver: new; + + Support for 24bpp, fix screen blanking and bug fixes for newport driver + (#5329, #5349, Guido Guenther). + + Newport driver updates, including: + - Add hardware cursor support. + - Workaround blank console after VT switch on some newports + (based on a patch from Dominik Behr). + - Support for the Indigo2 XL (based on a patch from Adrian + Schroeter). + (#5507, Guido Guenther). + + Initializing clock ranges in several drivers to get rid of the + annoying 'scaled from 0.0 MHz' message in xf86PrintModes() + (Egbert Eich). + + * patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD_savage_driver: (savage_driver.c): No need to + softboot twice; reduces startup time. (Alan Hourihane) + + * patch #000_stolen_from_HEAD_xaw: new; moved existing Xaw patches from + 000_stolen_from_HEAD here, and added the following: + + (AsciiSrc.c,MultiSrc.c): Silently ignore the useStringInPlace resource + if the string resource was not specified. This can be easily generated + when calling a program using the Xaw text widget. This is a very old + problem, and happens with any version of Xaw and Xaw variants. This + does not completely fix a problem with the multiSrcObject, if both, + string and useStringInPlace are specified, but avoids programs crashing + when, for example, calling it as: some-program -xrm '*useStringInPlace: + 1' Thanks to Chisato Yamauchi for pointing the problem. (Paulo Cesar + Pereira de Andrade) + + (MultiSrc.c): improperly checks open() return value (A.1415, Jaromir + Dolecek), Fix provided by Hideo Saito in NetBSD.
