Wez,
Additionally some more information I should give:
Things aren't modified from the standard edition tree in a sense that large
patches are applied that cause it to not be possible to merge a new version.
We
do have a copy of the xserver code in our source package, but that is so that
we
have the ability to build the VNC module.
If you try to do build the latest tree within a modern xorg release or
checkout,
you will run into compile time errors in xvnc.cc particularly in this
section:
// InitInput is called after InitExtensions, so we're guaranteed that
// vncExtensionInit() has already been called.
void InitInput(int argc, char *argv[])
{
DeviceIntPtr p, k;
p = AddInputDevice(vfbMouseProc, TRUE);
k = AddInputDevice(vfbKeybdProc, TRUE);
RegisterPointerDevice(p);
RegisterKeyboardDevice(k);
miRegisterPointerDevice(screenInfo.screens[0], p);
(void)mieqInit ((DevicePtr)k, (DevicePtr)p);
}
mieqInit has changed, miRegisterPointerDevice has changed, and the entire
interface is much more event driven. Things will need to be changed upstream
in
order to work nicely against newer xorg releases.
