Hello, I'd like to ask what are the plans for the xorg-server 1.8, especially now when RC1 of xorg-server 1.9 is out. Please don't get me wrong, I'm not demanding anything but I'm wondering what is holding back the move to [extra].
I'm using new xorg-server on two different computers (notebook with intel and desktop with nvidia's blob) for some time without any problems.
Though xorg-server 1.8 is not completely issue-free, I don't think 1.7 from extra isn't issue-free either. I've been running these packages for months now without much problems. Before we start moving xorg-server 1.8, I would like to know when we can move kernel26. The latest kernel has a lot of fixes for Intel and ATI/AMD DRM. Do we have really important open bugs for 2.6.34, or are we just waiting for the magic .1 release?
In fact for xorg/kernel, I mean such big packages, there are quite a few bug reports in the bug tracker, and a few questions in our forum, which are a good signal in my opinion.
