[gentoo-dev] Modular X: unmasking tonight, RFC

Hi all,

There aren't really any remaining blockers to keep modular X out of
~arch, as far as I can see.

If anyone's got one, please bring it up now. I'm planning to unmask
later tonight.

Thanks,
Donnie

If modular X is used.... and gnome-base/control-center is not patched..
gnome-settings-daemon on some evdev combinations...

Not sure if that's a blocker... but we should rush in a new version of
control-center with the patch

Ref: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116195


Btw, how many ebuilds are left to be ported ?

Nah, not a blocker for unmasking. Most people aren't even using the  
evdev driver, they're using keyboard and mouse.

Less than 130, that's what it was some days ago. Haven't checked more  
recently.

Thanks,
Donnie

The evdev kernel driver, or evdev X driver?

Talking about X driver I suppose...

And I think I sort of know what's the big issue there... scancodes given by X 
are different than usual keyboard driver and stuff like vmware doesn't seem 
to like that.

Knowing Mike, probably some game does the same, too ;)

Is it planned to release some xserver ebuilds ?

Could you rephrase the question? I don't understand it.

I can't any ebuild for xserver
(http://www.jabber.no/ejabberd-1.0.0.tar.bz2) (X over vesa fb). Is it
planned to make an ebuild available ?

What does a jabber server have to do with X on vesafb?  Are you not 
satisfied with the vesa driver which is already part of modular Xorg, 
provided by the x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa ebuild?  Could you possibly 
rephrase your question so that it actually makes sense?
