X Server 1.7 Release Candidate 2

Written by Michael Larabel in X.Org on 22 September 2009 at 01:15 AM EDT. 4 Comments

Just about a week after X Server 1.7 RC1 made it out, a second release candidate for this next X.Org Server is available. This second release candidate brings bug fixes and other improvements, but the code is currently within a feature freeze. Expect a third release candidate next week.

The change-log along with source download links for this X.Org 7.5 server can be found on the X.Org mailing list.
