Hi,
Whilst trying to get LBX support to work with the latest X.Org packets in
Debian unstable, lbxproxy kept telling me that the LBX extension was not
available on my client's xserver.
Digging around I did indeed find that the LBX extension was not loading in
my /var/log/Xorg.0.log file but yet I have libext6 installed which is ment
to supply such goodness.
Digging through Google I happened upon a patch being applied that actually
turned off LBX support, but I could not find any reason why this had been
done.

Any chance of turning it back on?
Cheers
Alex

Hi,
We've now removed all traces of LBX upstream. It's a woefully
inefficient compression method (see the paper quoted in this thread):
you're best off using ssh -X.
Cheers,
Daniel
