Package: xserver-xorg Version: 1:7.5+6 Severity: wishlist Hi,
quoting the Ubuntu wiki page [1]: for video drivers that support kernel mode-setting (KMS), X can be set up to run as a non-root user. Also see the blueprint [2] about this topic on Launchpad. As it seems like Ubuntu is willing to work on this [3], it would be nice to see some joint work with them so that a common solution can be found.
