We are going to revert to xorg-server-1.10.4
After some discussion we decided that we are not going to ship latest and greatest xorg-server due some issues:
– FGLRX broken with Xvideo (VLC/mplayer/etc can crash X)
– Legacy NVIDIA drivers do NOT work with latest xorg-server
– No noticeable new features in latest xorg-server.
It almost never happens we decide such a thing after sending out packages to main repository. The package “downgrades” will follow soon.

Yeah what about it?

Wayland isn’t ready yet. It is looking promising and has a good plan for taking over (i.e. it doesn’t have to be a complete X server replacement, rather can run along/ontop of an X server), but it isn’t ready for any distro to use it over xorg yet.

hm, i have nvidia 430 gt (which i think is not “legacy”), and with the new release of sabayon 8, i have problems in xorg server. The boot procedure is just fine, but when xorg tried to launch, he cant, with error like:: NVRM: RmInitAdapter failed!
I can use only vesa xorg module for successful pass this stage…
With Sabayon 7 this error is not there…
