Description Tomáš Chvátal (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-05-03 22:00:06 UTC 
For tracking purposes:
upstream changed the dont_zap config value back to false by default, so we should patch-up the xorg-1.6 to keep with it so users dont have to learn new settings with 1.7 again.
For patch see the url.
Comment 1 Rémi Cardona (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-05-03 23:19:13 UTC 
NB: a new version (or a patched version) of xkeyboard-config is needed to go along with that.
Comment 2 Rémi Cardona (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-05-09 08:30:18 UTC 
I've nominated this patch for inclusion in the 1.6 branch, hopefully this will make it into 1.6.2.

Cheers
Comment 3 Rémi Cardona (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-05-17 21:55:00 UTC 
Ok, the patch is in 1.6.1.901-r1 (/me curses upstream for braindead numbering scheme).

I'll roll out either 1.5+server_terminate or a complete snapshot of the current git xkeyboard-config. Thoughts welcome.

Cheers

patches in the branch, xkeyboard-config bumped and documentation up-to-date
