In addition to the three patches I just posted, here is a list of a few other patches Ubuntu is carrying, that are currently blocked somewhere in the review process:
1. 208_switch_on_release.diff * https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865 * http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-devel/2013-January/035046.html The original proposed patch broke the XKB spec, which I guess is why it was not accepted. However, an alternate version was recently proposed last month. We're hoping that resolves to a solution, that can replace the patch we're currently carrying. 2. 227_null_ptr_midispcur.patch * https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/930936 * Possibly dupe of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24181 I think this just papers over a deeper problem so probably isn't a candidate for upstreaming, but it did resolve the recurring crash problem for the user, so we're carrying it in Ubuntu. I haven't reproduced the bug myself, but maybe the patch offers some clue. 3. 233-xf86events-valgrind.patch * http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/12156/ Fixes a valgrind error we ran into. The review comments suggest doing a more extensive code refactoring, but given it's been a few months maybe that's more than the patch author is prepared to do for now.
