Good to hear things have gone pretty smoothly for you! I've actually changed this default for INPUT_DEVICES, because it's so uncommon to use anything besides keyboard/mouse/evdev. So those are the new defaults, set in profiles (No, I didn't add evdev to non-Linux profiles, calm down =). But if you manually set INPUT_DEVICES="" it will still pull them all in. > So thanks to everyone (i assume that's mostly you, Donnie) on this > very well done job. Don't forget about Josh, he's put a lot of work into modular X as well. He just doesn't talk as much as I do. =) Thanks, Donnie signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

One other thing I forgot to mention -- stable xproto 7.0.5, not 7.0.7. stable: libX11 1.0.1 = xproto 7.0.5 ~arch: libX11 1.0.3 = xproto 7.0.7 Thanks, Donnie signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

I will be starting this very soon (within 2 hours at most), so respond ASAP if you would like to save yourself a lot of work. - I highly recommend you delete or move your distfiles before starting, to ensure you don't break the digests.

[gentoo-dev] Modular X (7.0) stable on x86
I've just spent the past few hours stabilizing modular X.Org 7.0 on x86. This is a reminder of the migration guide [1] and a guide to other arches on how to stabilize it. I have not stabilized most optional packages, instead preferring to wait for any requests to see whether demand exists for them. I encourage other architectures to stabilize modular X. AMD64, you will want to go with 7.0 because you also have binary drivers. All other archs will want to go with 7.1. The modular X package list [2] will help with this. Follow my lead and stabilize the same things I did: all protos, all libraries (start with libX11 and track its deps), then track your way through the rest by running through any remaining deps of xorg-server. If you are stabilizing: 7.0 -- easy, just touch all the same packages I did. For drivers, there's usually a minor version bump to the version that is incompatible with xorg-server-1.0, so make sure to stabilize the older driver. 7.1 -- follow the same process but always use the latest ebuild, with the single exception of libX11 -- do not stabilize 1.0.3, but rather 1.0.1-r1. In particular, do not forget the virtuals: glu, opengl, x11, xft.
