Modular X.org / Xgl / Xegl on Mandriva

[Posted February 14, 2006 by ris]

Here's a note from Mandriva's new maintainer of X.org, Gustavo Pichorim Boiko, on what he is planning. On X.org: "I have already started packaging Xorg 7.0 but I don't have any set of packages useful at this moment." On Xgl and Xegl: "Mandriva is not going to officially adopt the Novell Xgl server (Xglx). Instead, we are trying to push the Xegl[2] development."

Matthieu Duchemin has posted a how-to for running Xgl with compiz under Mandriva 2006.
