One more here. Just spent 4 days trying to figure out how to get back ordinary X server. 1. We have sessions in /usr/share/xsessions. If Xgl is started from that session, user will be able to select on startup, whether he wants Xgl or not. 2. A real bug: uninstalling xserver-xgl with dpkg -r didn

That seems to be enough. I'll see about making the auto-start able to be disabled on a per-user basis. I still think that enabled-by-default is the right setting, though. ** Changed in: xserver-xgl (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => In Progress -- 00xserver-xgl_start-server Should Be Option

I had xserver-xgl installed from the dark days before Avivo, when I had to run the binary ATI driver. I still keep it around when I want to see the current state of "bling" on the Linux desktop... not a very important reason, sure, but Jarmo's statistics indicate that I may not be alone. I'm not

Hm. Some of those sound like fixable bugs, and Xgl should work fine on Intel cards. Xgl should work fine on any card that provides 3d acceleration, really. Anyway, the next package will include an upgrade-notifier message indicating that Xgl will now be started automatically. That should give p

I had xserver-xgl installed for some reason, maybe I tried it during edgy... Anyway the package has been installed since then and hasn't caused problems until this upgrade. I guess that's my own fault, but it sure took some time debugging why X got totally borked (running like without acceleration,

A couple of clarifications, so I had xserver-xgl installed without (ever) using it, and of course I meant "stale" xserver-xgl, not xserver- xorg... The numbers are for the xserver-xgl package. -- 00xserver-xgl_start-server Should Be Optional https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/136878 You received thi

The script is installed under the assumption that a user who installs Xgl wants to use Xgl. It should be possible to modify the script so that it is easily disabled if there's a good use-case for having Xgl installed and not wanting to use it, however. Alternatively we could add avivo to the list
