And on the heels of a fairly mature, stable, and probably final release of the 2.3.x series, I'm announcing the first alpha of the 2.4.x series. It pulls in rcs of the latest x.org libs as well as migration to the 1.5 server branch. Beyond that, there isn't much different from 2.3.2.1.

Note: the GLX code in xorg-server-1.5-apple is going to need some work. The 1.5 branch made one of the API functions we used in 1.4 a no-op, and now we need to provide a linked list of __GLXconfig AFAIK. I have a tree with some changes that isn't quite ready. Right now GLX just has one config, so the number of visuals and fbconfigs is limited. I will try to do some more work on the __GLXconfig code today. I also really want to get pbuffer support working too in the X11 libGL, and the 1.5 X server branch. Getting more of the offscreen rendering code to work, like GLXPixmaps would be great too. I also noticed that we didn't list that multisampling support was added to 2.3.2. That took a while to work out, in the libGL and the X server, but it seems to work in my test cases with 2.3.2. The behavior of the GL_BACK should probably be noted too. Now that glDrawBuffer() is more consistent with the glDrawBuffer on other X11 platforms with the wrapper that I wrote to make it use the LEFT and RIGHT back buffers. This makes Pymol work better with most machines when GLX_STEREO is available. George -- http://people.freedesktop.org/~gstaplin/
