The X ChangeLogs and source release on opensolaris.org have been
updated for Nevada build 67. Note that as we did with build 60,
this build has been released before QA has finished, and thus is
subject to change/respin before integration to the build 67 OS if
pre-integration testing finds showstopper issues. If this happens,
notice will be posted to the xwin-discuss mailing list.
Notable changes since the last drop (build 63):
- added libXcomposite & VMWare's vmmouse driver for the first time
- switched to current Xorg modular sources for libXdamage
- included another security advisory fix from X.Org
- upgraded nv driver to version 2.0.2
- includes the makefile improvements posted in May to xwin-discuss
Important new notes in the README file cover building with Studio 12
or on Solaris Express/Nevada build 65 or later:
Studio 12 is not yet supported for building the X sources - several of the
bundled packages were built using versions of the GNU
autoconf/automake/libtool utilties which treat the warning from Studio 12
that -xarch=generic64 is now deprecated as a failure in their tests,
resulting in incorrect build flags. We are working to correct these
failures in the future - you should be able to use the JDS CBE versions
of these tools to regenerate scripts in affected modules if you wish to
build with Studio 12 now.
If building on Solaris Nevada build 65 or later, you will need to also
download and apply the docbook-utils.patch from the directory for this build.
To apply, after unpacking the source, cd into the X-src-20070605 directory
and run:
gpatch -p0 < ../docbook-utils.patch
You may also need to add --disable-xsdl to the CONFIG_OPTS_COMMON macro in
XW_NV/open-src/xserver/xorg/Makefile.
