Solaris' kernel cannot support these instructions. - Xsetup (graphical) now lets you change your keyboard mapping on the fly. - MultiHead DualView configurations are now supported. - workstation cards supported on Solaris now. - missing s3 modules in LX server have been found. - Fullscreen VMWare fixes for S3 Savage and ATI chipsets. - display list fixes and performance improvements. - many minor fixes to the OpenGL rendering pipeline, improving correctness. - Performance Improvements. Many improvements to performance across all chips and cards have been added. Some benchmark results have more than doubled. - Several stereo related issues have been fixed across the board. - Corruption seen with Opaque window moves - Problems doing stereo on SMP machines - problems doing stereo on Linux 2.2x kernels - Issues with the 'O' application fixed. - broken stereo - problems displaying the application's menus - A problem with font ordering is fixed (where broken applications would end up displaying little squares instead of the characters desired when Unicode fonts were also installed). - LockMouse bug in Xaccel.ini fixed. - G400/G450/G550 Multihead fixes and significant performance improvements in certain operations. - packaging fixes - There is no longer a conflict dependency against Mesa. Too many distros package Mesa strangely, making it difficult and sometimes impossible to remove it. The packages will simply locate and move any Mesa libraries and includes safely out of the way. - other improvements to cleanup and restore the prior configuration if you should ever want to remove this package. - The xsvc package has been updated. See README.xsvc for the changes. ====================================================================== The new demo 2.1 Summit servers and their corresponding text files can be found in the following directories: DX: ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/Summit/linux/desktop/ LX: ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/Summit/linux/laptop/ MX: ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/Summit/linux/multihead/ WX: ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/Summit/linux/workstation/ The new version of xsvc can be found at: ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/Summit/ Cordially, Xi Graphics Support ===================== To unsubscribe from this list, please send email to majordomo@xxxxxxx with the message content 'unsubscribe summit-announce'. =====================
