this week's Xorg freeze exceptions...



Hi,

I'd like to get the following packages unblocked:

* xfree86-driver-synaptics/0.14.7~git20070706-3
makes use of the hotplug mechanism to load automatically if a touchpad
is detected, which is needed on many laptops.
also fixes a misuse of an ioctl() that causes a warning on recent (>
2.6.26) kernels.

* xorg/1:7.3+16
debconf translations

* xorg-server/2:1.4.2-5
return 1.1 from XRRQueryVersion if the server and client's endianness
are different (randr 1.2 requests would return BadImplementation in this
case, which would likely crash the client).
also trivial fix for a longstanding bug in exa, introduced when an
"assert(foo != bar);" was changed to "if (foo != bar) FatalError();"

there's a -6 in the pipe, with 2 fixes for the Xevie extension so far
(http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-xorg/xserver/xorg-server.git;a=summary).

* xserver-xorg-video-intel/2:2.3.2-2+lenny4
work around a rendering bug on various i965-based chips by disabling exa
render acceleration by default.

Thanks in advance,
Julien
