So you claim:

git checkout modesetting && ./autogen.sh && make

../i830_xf86Crtc.h:261: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before 'RRPropertyValuePtr'

The missing symbol is from RandR 1.2. So, again, more than five months after Intel announced a "free software graphics drivers for Intel i965 chipset" and more than 21 years after the introduction of the multisync monitor, people without infinite free time still do not have access to a G965 driver that can perform the simple function of programming the video mode.

Odd, I'm running libXrandr 1.1.2 and it compiles & runs just fine. No RRPropertyValuePtr in randrstr.h either. Sure Intel may have hyped their OSS support a bit, but what are the alternatives? I'll pass on waiting for nvidia or ati to release driver update because some ABI got changed.

Aren't you the same person who accused me of lying earlier in this discussion?

No, I'm not the same person. I actually don't see words "lie" and "lying" anywhere in this discussion.
