X.Org Server 1.20.6 Released With Many Bug Fixes - Helps XWayland, PRIME + Other Bits

I never said that it was (GNOME-specific)

No, but you said 144Hz wasn't trolling. "Made by GNOME. Made for GNOME." That's not trolling? C'mon...

I can't see a rapid release schedule making the project more active, just less..

I don't see it changing the project's activity at all, nor is it the goal to create more activity. It's about making sure changes are released in a timely manner.

That doesn't mean the only fixes in new X releases are GNOME-specific.

I never said that it was

Also, X is looking to move to automated 6 month releases, so they realize that the current release model isn't working.

You know, with the amount of time that X.org has been focused on smaller and smaller changes to the code, I don't see how moving to a 6 month release schedule will help. If there is anything that sees any movement, it's Xwayland and not much with the rest of the stack.... so outside of that, I can't see a rapid release schedule making the project more active, just less...

It is clear 144Hz is actually a reluctant and hesitant Griffin/GhostOfFunkS/Mentalist that slowly lost its patience and now is back to its former self.

Yep. "GNOME is the standard desktop!" all day long and turns every thread into desktop holy wars.

Maybe your initial post wasn't trolling (I know for a fact it was, since all your posts are). But let's give you the benefit of the doubt. In any event, this last one totally is trolling. You know exactly what you're doing here, and a lot of long-time readers are getting sick of it. So kindly knock it off. But of course I know you won't ...

Exactly. It is clear 144Hz is actually a reluctant and hesitant Griffin/GhostOfFunkS/Mentalist that slowly lost its patience and now is back to its former self.
And I don't even understand how is it that its posts often get a lot of likes... Does he/she create that many accounts?

...Remember how G/G/M used to type "KDE" in lowercase? "kde"?

Guess what? 144Hz did the same:

sway and kwin

It's KWin...

Are you calling Gentoo users autistic?

That said any half-decent distro makes recompiling the kernel package (any package really) with different options easy.

Just a bad joke. That's certainly true. I started with Red Hat, SUSE, then Knoppix. Gentoo was the first distribution which didn't fail when I wanted to compile my own kernel. I suspect the earlier experiences failed due to some missing build dependency or header package.

DanLYou feel trolled by common facts.

I already debunked your "facts" in the other thread. I'm not going to waste more time on your trolling, other than telling you to shut up, because that's all you deserve.

Gnome have been active around some core systems in X.org as of late... namely some Xwayland fixes and tweaks

That doesn't mean the only fixes in new X releases are GNOME-specific. Read the announcement. Also, X is looking to move to automated 6 month releases, so they realize that the current release model isn't working.

DanL Problem1: You feel trolled by common facts. Problem2: You already got told during last discussion that X is not exclusive to GNOME. But it remains all about GNOME when no other desktops show up to the hard work.

Have fun with the new X release. Made by GNOME. Made for GNOME. Perfectly timed for next week’s GNOME releases.

SHUT THE FUCK UP!

WE DO NOT BREAK USERSPACE MAURO!

(Before getting offended, read https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/23/75)

I remember this rant. It's one of my favorite. I'll check if it's kernel or gdm.

[Duve]

X is not a GNOME exclusive project. Stop the trolling!

You are right, but he is not trolling. Gnome have been active around some core systems in X.org as of late... namely some Xwayland fixes and tweaks, so he's not wrong in saying that.

[M@yeulC]

Gnome needs to fix Gnome shell or mutter, because some games on Steam are unplayable. In KDE they're working like a charm. They also need to fix gdm which doesn't work with custom Kernel. After that it will be great desktop.

Hmm, I recently realized that Steam's remote play not working for me might have to do with sway or xwayland... any pointers?
