The following is a snippet from the release notes describing new support, enhanced support and bug fixes present in this release.

2.2-21 (all packages except Matrox Parhelia)

- Add Radeon 9250 (PCI and AGP) support.

- correct issue in internal allocator seen on RH FC3 and RHEL 4.0 that
  could cause graphical Xsetup to hang with a blank screen when started.

  Also, internal allocator will set errno to ENOMEM on an allocation
  failure as some glibc implementations expect.

- add USB Wheel Mouse support to Solaris 10 and patched Solaris 9 systems.

- add Stereo Support to IBM a31p laptops.

- add Xorg compat option (-br).  This option is ignored, but will no
  longer prevent the server from starting on systems that assume the
  option is always supported (Suse).

- set button number to something reasonable for Synaptics TP's.

- package naming change.  Packages that do not already include the
  machine architecture (Solaris for now) as part of the package name,
  now do.  RPM already does this, so no change there.

- xsvc (3.0-55):

  - Use remap_pfn_range() rather than depricated remap_page_range()
  - correct bug that could cause incorrect flags to be set for an
    allocated page
  - fix solaris 10 nastygram regarding use of hat_getkpfnum()
    (a depricated interface)
  - Intel 915 support
  - added some installation support for linux systems that are
    using 'udev'.
  - fixed xsvctest to report in MB/sec always, avoiding some
    overrun errors that could cause the estimated AGP GART
    bandwith to appear very low.  Also, do not use x86 specific
    copy optimization anymore (uneeded anyway) to avoid problems with
    Operton/AMD64 systems.
  - intel fixup for i845 - for compaq i852 driver.
  - integrated powerpc support (linux).


Thank you for choosing Accelerated X!
