Bugzilla Bug 214233

Hi Guys,

The attached ebuild fixes the following bugs:

    1. Fatal server lockup on start with linuxwacom drivers < 0.7.9. (I add
>=linuxwacom 0.7.9 as a dependency). See
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15135
    2. Fixes resolution of the stylus, so that your notes are not ugly. (Patch
from upstream. See
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1891727&group_id=163434&atid=827733
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1891713&group_id=69596&atid=525127
and http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10324 . (Without this patch,
the resolution of the tablet PC drops to the resolution of the screen, giving
TERRIBLE quality strokes.)

Are these patches already in the 1.4 branch upstream? If so, they should be in
xorg-server-1.4.0.90-r4. Add '=xorg-server-1.4.0.90-r4 **' to your
package.keywords to test.

The patches are in the upstream git, and I just checked they are in your r4
release. However you missed the WACOM dependency. You get a crash on startup
with the old wacom drivers, and need >=x11-drivers/linuxwacom-0.7.9.

Done, thanks!
