The First X.Org Server 1.10 Snapshot Brings Some Fun

"Following the hiatus last week with the X.Org Server 1.10 merge window being kept open to allow time for finishing up RandR 1.4 with per-CRTC pixmaps and then NVIDIA pushing for fence sync support in this release, the work has now settled and the merge window has closed. Keith Packard has also announced the first development snapshot of X.Org Server 1.10.

"Up until the beginning of last week it looked like xorg-server 1.10 would contain just a lot of bug-fixes with no appearance of X Input 2.1 / Multi-Touch or any other major features, but then a lot of work ended up being pushed at the last minute. Keith wanted to get the per-CRTC pixmap support for the X Server finally finished after it was previously delayed from X Server 1.9."
