xserver 1.6.1.902

• The following 10 patches that fix front-buffer rendering with DRI2:
  • Have these been tested to work with clients without the corresponding fixes? Obviously front-buffer rendering would remain broken in that case. -MichelDaenzer
    • In theory, yes. In practice, no. Commit ff6c7764c2909e4126403b7211faa6c58556b341 changes the DRI2 interface between the driver and the extension. When xf86-driver-intel was updated to the new interface, we changed the way that clients request stencils buffers (using DRI2BufferDepthStencil vs. DRI2BufferDepth and DRI2BufferStencil). This affects one driver (intel), and it will be resolved by Intel's 2009Q2 in a couple weeks. In the mean time, users upgrading their xserver can use DRI1. I don't think this should block pulling these patches to 1.6. If anything, not having them in 1.6 soon potentiates the same sort of compatibility for other drivers that will be releasing DRI2 support soon. - ?IanRomanick
  • For the record, those patches require a new release of dri2proto - ?RemiCardona
    • Yes. KristianHoegsberg released dri2proto 2.1 on June 12th, 2009. - ?IanRomanick
