XQuartz 2.7.8_beta2 is available for download.

You can see http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki/X112.7.8 for a full set of changes, but most noteworth ones are:

  1) xauth now correctly parses the Yosemite launchd $DISPLAY socket path
  2) libGL has been updated to Mesa 10.4.4
  3) Various exploits were fixed in xorg-server, freetype, and libpng
  4) A bug preventing automatic updates in some cases has been fixed

For #4, note that the automatic update bug is fixed when updating *from* 2.7.8_beta2 and later.  If you are on an effected version (I think 2.7.7_rc1 throuch 2.7.8_beta1), you may need to manually download the installer from the URL above to update.

If you have any GLX intensive applications, please report back on how libGL is now.

Thanks,
Jeremy
