2. Summary of new features in 4.2.0.
2.1 Video Driver Enhancements
o An s3 driver is added, which provides support for many of the older
non-ViRGE and non-Savage S3 chipsets.
o Some vmware driver problems are fixed, and the driver is updated to
take advantage of VMWare Workstation 3.0 features. These include
improved hardware cursor handling and support for 8 bit emulation.
o Support added for Trident *BladeXP chipsets (currently not-acceler-
ated).
o Xv support added for Trident TGUI series chips (not 9440 though).
o Support added for the older Trident chipsets again for ISA/VLBus (not
tested)
o Support added to the glint driver for 3DLabs Permedia4, GLINT R4 and
Gamma 2 chipsets.
o Support added to the i810 driver for Intel i830 (tested on Linux only).
o Support added to the ATI radeon driver for Radeon 7500 (2D and 3D),
Radeon 8500 (2D only), and Rage128ProII.
o Support added for the Matrox G550 support. This included dual-head
support.
o Support added for NVIDIA nForce integrated graphics.
o The NVIDIA nv driver now has preliminary powerpc support for the NV11
and NV20.
o Support added to the NVIDIA nv driver for interlaced modes on hardware
that supports this, and support for resolutions higher than 1600x1200.
o Fixes for the savage driver on 64-bit platforms, XVideo support for the
SuperSavage, and other savage driver updates.
o The ATI r128 driver now uses the CCE DMA engine for 2D acceleration
when direct rendering is enabled, which reduces context switching over-
head and improves stability and performance for XVideo and some 2D oper-
ations.
o The fbdev driver now supports rotation.
o Various updates to the apm, ark, chips (C&T), cirrus, i128, neomagic,
newport, s3virge, siliconmotion, sis, tdfx, tseng, vesa, and vga
drivers.
2.2 Input Driver Enhancements
o The mouse driver now has support for mouse wheel emulation.
o The mouse driver can now handle replug events on Linux for PS/2 mice.
o The "Min/Max X/Y Position" options in the elographics and mutouch
drivers are changed to "Min/Max X/Y" to be consistent with the other
input drivers.
o Linux USB keyboard access is fixed when no PS/2 controller is present.
o Added calcomp input driver.
o Added DMC input driver.
o Added hyperpen input driver.
2.3 X Server and Extension Updates
o Resynced with X.Org's X11R6.6.
o Mesa updated to the post-3.4.2 3.4 branch version as of November 2001.
o DRI drivers resynced with the latest from the DRI project.
o Various updates to the Xft library.
o The DEC-XTRAP extension is now available.
o The PEX and XIE extensions are no longer built/distributed by default.
o A security problem related to glyph clipping for large origins is
fixed.
o An i810 XvMC (motion compensation) driver is now available (Linux
only).
o A fatal bug XVideo Xineramification bug is fixed.
2.4 Client and Library Updates
o FreeType2 updated to version 2.0.6.
o Added libGL man pages.
o Xload now has support for displaying the load of remote hosts.
o Xterm updated to patch level 165.
o SuperProbe is removed.
o Sample xtrap clients added.
2.5 I18N and Font Updates
o New Luxi scalable fonts (TrueType and Type 1) from Bigelow & Holmes.
These fonts are original designs by Kris Holmes and Charles Bigelow.
See below (section 4.22, page 1) for further information.
o More locale/international keyboards supported.
o Modularized I18N support in Xlib is included from X11R6.6.
o A problem that caused bdftopcf to sometimes write corrupted fonts is
fixed.
o Some problem with Xlib's handling of CTEXT and multi-byte characters
are fixed.
o The fontenc layer is updated, and the fontenc library is now installed
and available for other applications.
o Improvements to the input method framework in Xlib for UTF-8 locales.
o A filter called ``luit'' is added, which provides locale and ISO 2022
support to any Unicode terminal, notably xterm. Use of luit is still
experimental in this release.
2.6 OS Support Updates
o Build problems on both QNX4 and QNX6 are fixed.
o VT switching problems with the i810 driver on FreeBSD are worked
around.
o Problems building modules with some enhanced versions of gcc are fixed.
o Lots of updates for Darwin/Mac OS X, including:
o On Mac OS X, a new rootless mode is added to the XDarwin X server.
This allows X clients to display windows on the Aqua desktop.
o Xinerama support added to XDarwin
o With XDarwin in full screen mode, the depth, size, and refresh
rate can now be chosen to be different from the settings used by
Aqua.
o GLX support added for Darwin and Mac OS X with software rendering.
o Keymap setup in XDarwin is improved, particularly for interna-
tional keyboards.
o In addition to English and Japanese, the XDarwin user interface is
now localized in Dutch, French, German, Spanish, and Korean.
o Lots of Cygwin support updates.
o Support added for OpenBSD/powerpc.
o Build support added for Linux on IBM S/390.
o Removed stale support for Amoeba and Minix.
o Client-side support added for sparc64 on NetBSD and OpenBSD.
o Support added for building the X server on Linux/m68k.
o Support added for building on Linux/arm32.
o Updates to Linux/mips support.
