Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: xorg-server-1.9.0-2 (TEST)

The following packages have been updated in the Cygwin distribution:

*** xorg-server-1.9.0-2
*** xorg-server-dmx-1.9.0-2

This package contains XWin and the other X.Org X11 servers.

A new 1.9 release candidate has also been made available as a test release.
This will be made stable in approximately one week if no major regressions are
reported.

These packages have been promoted from test to current.


This contains the following cygwin-specific changes:

- Fix a regression with window placement: Windows which remember their
position were drifting towards the bottom-right with each appearance
- Move log files from /var/log to /var/log/xwin, which is created mode 0777,
to avoid logging failures in multiuser setups

Mentions of /var/log/XWin.0.log in the documentation will be updated to say
/var/log/xwin/XWin.0.log after this release is made stable.

... and I am in the process of updating the documentation.


Additional documentation for the experimental WGL mode:
* OpenGL drawing to an X window which is not a top-level window is not yet
implemented.
* Please ensure you are using the latest display drivers for your hardware
before reporting any visual issues with WGL.
