Updated: xorg-server-1.17.1-1 (TEST)



The following packages have been updated in the Cygwin distribution:

*** xorg-server-*1.17.1-1

These packages contain XWin and the other X.Org X11 servers.

These packages are currently available as a test release, and will be made stable in approximately two weeks, if no major regressions are reported.

Please try test releases and report problems to the Cygwin/X mailing list. Testing helps ensure good releases!

In addition to upstream fixes [1], this contains the following cygwin-specific changes since 1.17.0-1:

* Improve the RANDR data returned so a primary output exists (Fixes an issue with GDM, see [2])
* Make the XDMCP session options -query,-indirect,etc. imply -listen tcp

NOTEWORTHY CHANGES IN 1.17
==========================

The creation of indirect GLX contexts is now prohibited by default. The +iglx option is required to allow them. See [3] for more information on possible OpenGL configurations.

'-nolisten tcp' is now the default, so the server only accepts local connections on a unix domain socket. A '-listen' option has been added which can be used to restore the previous behaviour.
