Build 107 also includes the integration of the Xorg upgrade from 1.3 to 1.5.3,
and the upgrade of all the associated Xorg drivers to 1.5.3 compatible versions.
(Except for the XVR-2500/kfb driver on SPARC, which missed 107 and will be
coming in 108, so that card will not be usable on this build with Xorg.)

There have unfortunately been a few bugs found since this was integrated -
fortunately, most of them have simple workarounds.   I've posted a list with
details at:

        http://blogs.sun.com/alanc/entry/xorg_1_5_3_in

including information on these bugs:

6801598 Xorg 1.5 ignores kernel keyboard layout setting, always uses "us"
6791361 SUNWxorg-xkb should deliver "base" rules
6801386 Xorg core dumps on startup if hald not running in snv_107
6806763 Xorg 1.5 doesn?t start if xorg.conf contains RgbPath entry
6799573 Metacity not starting on TX Xorg 1.5
