At the end of July 2016, the X.Org Server 1.18.4 maintenance update marked the end of life for the 1.18 series, which was unveiled approximately one year ago, on the 11th of November 2015. The 1.19 series of the X.Org Server display server entered development after that, and a first snapshot was ready for public testing on mid-September 2016. After two Release Candidate versions that brought lots of interesting improvements for the default display server used in almost all Linux-based operating systems, X.Org Server 1.19.0 is now officially available for download with its new features and enhancements for better graphics on GNU/Linux platforms.
