No. I noticed this yesterday, and skipped re-compiling of xorg-server, just in case. Oh, I just see that on my desktop machine xorg-server already got re- compiled without fglrx. I see no adverse effects yet, but then OpenGL never worked really well here. > Q2. Does anyone know why midi USE flag is no longer used?
