The newly released version works for me. The only snag is that compiz no
longer carries the LD_PRELOAD workaround for GL implementations without
texture_to_pixmap (but that really needs to be filed into a different
bug)

With this version of xserver-xgl I am finally able to successfully run
Beryl on my Gnome/ATI/Xgl combo for the first time after months of
trying. Two thumbs up.

I've been discussing concerns with this UVF exception request with John
on IRC (-motu). We've concluded that the mesa changes included in this
git snapshot are largely irrelevant, because xserver-xgl's ./configure-
time parameters use system-wide mesa. Furthermore, the remaining issue

After some code checking, the Xinerama stuff is already in the git
package that John Dong put together. The patch fails to apply because
it's already there. After some investigation along with John, Xinerama
works !great!. There is an explicit need to +xinerama to the XGL startup
script, but after
Yes, I'm sorry to say but Xinerama patches were dropped because they
could not be patched against the new Xgl, and I could not locate an
updated version of that patch.
My primary concern at the moment is to make xserver-xgl work _in any
fashion_ on Feisty, as it's completely broken. Single-head wo
John Dong, i tried your package, it work great (and fast too). But you
seem to have dropped the Xinerama stuff. Could this be why my windows

across both screens.

What is the status of this ? Is the new package going to pass the UVF or

It not for me, my system is i386 and I have his package working

I agree, what's the point in having an xgl that doesn't work in the
repos as it is now? How is that [in any way] better than having one that
seems to work, even if it does have some bugs, there's no bigger bug
than not working at all.

I've read all the post and I can't understand some statements...

The debdiff is large, but the majority of it is the bundled copy of
mesa. I'm not sure what the status of mesa is, whether it can be removed
from the source or not, but we already carry most of the changes in the
mesa source package.

I hate to say this (as an nvidia-glx-legacy user) but of xserver-xgl

In addition, triaging Xgl bugs at this point is not all that practical.
Most were filed in Edgy's days, and I cannot ask people to confirm it on

xserver-xgl is just one of the MANY programs that got shafted by the
Xorg 7.2 update. It is simply unfair that Xorg 7.2 got in after UVF and
the packages it broke do not g et the same privilege.
A quick search around reveals several other packages suffering the same fate:

John just said that it's too hard to work on the bugs of xserver-xgl.

I'm fine with the update if John cares for any possible regressions.
Another point why this is necessary is, that the current version doesn't
work at all with our current Xorg...

I also have an ATI card (FireGL V5250), and could get compiz/beryl to work only
with the fglrx driver (unfortunatelly) over XGL.
I installed jdong's patch more than a week ago.
I had problems with Beryl now and then (famous white screen, white borders,
and content of windows not refreshed bug
Some fact gathered in a small IRC discussion:
* John wants to take care of the package as a bug contact.
* The package does not work at all at the moment.
* This update completely changes the codebase, which means a different set of
bugs too.
* fglrx and nvidia-legacy need xserver-xgl
* John
as just said on irc, I cannot approve this UVF request with good
concience. The changes are IMO way too big, and I don't really know how
xserver-xgl works and what changes have been done. To me this is update
could mean a totally other set of bugs, with former existing cards not
working any longer.
Could another MOTU UVF member please spare some time to take a look at
this?

without this version of xserver-xgl I'm unable to run beryl or conpiz in
feisty. Please include it in universe packages, it's very important for
the unfortunate fglrx dependents like myselfe.
