I'd like to announce 2.3.2_beta1. This release is not quite feature-
complete with everything that I want to appear in 2.3.2, but it's at a
good point to release for general testing and feedback since we have
some considerable upates.
Major changes include (full ChangeLog below):
Increased support for tablets in GDK based apps (Gimp, Inkscape, etc)
Improved clipboard synchronization
- The copy-on-select option is not yet implemented
- If you have a custom ~/.xinitrc, you may need to edit it to run
xpbproxy. This will not be the case for the final release.
Improved Spaces interaction
- Ctrl-arrow, Ctrl-num, and "dragging off screen" now works with
quartz-wm
Possible GLX stereo mode
- defaults write org.x.X11 enable_stereo -boolean YES
- Experimental, but please test and give feedback
