You have heard incorrectly. It is _disabled_ by default for security reasons, as it's been a repeated source of exploitable bugs, but the feature itself isn't going away. One caveat is there's no easy way to enable it other than the command line, and not all display managers give you a mechanism to pass arbitrary options in (which is reasonable enough). I've added an xorg.conf option to enable IGLX in master, and I'll be backporting that to the various stable branches as well. - ajax _______________________________________________ [email protected]: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s
