Hi
The X.Org Foundation is currently preparing a second maintenance release for version 6.8 of their implementation of the X Window System. The code is presently in the beta testing phase. SUSE will prepare update packages for the latest SUSE Linux version as soon as this release (6.8.2) becomes available. In our efforts to work closely with the X.Org Foundation to make their software even better we would like to invite those users of SUSE Linux who are interested in the X Window System to participate in this beta test. This will give the beta version of 6.8.2 a wider exposure, more testing and allow our users to identify and report problems on their hardware early so they may be fixed for the release.
To simplify testing I've built X.Org 6.8.2 RC1 RPMs for SuSE 9.2 and uploaded them for download to
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/X/Xorg/Xorg-X11R6.8.2-RC1/
* Installation instructions can be found in the README (also in this directory).
* In case something goes wrong and you need to revert to the original X.Org 6.8.1 RPMs for SuSE 9.2, simply remove the new RPMs with
rpm -e <pkg-name> --nodeps
and install the old ones from your DVD/CDs with
Hello Stefan. I haven't as yet upgraded to the official 9.2 (have beta on test machine). Is there a chance these will work with 9.1? Or, is the kernal and coding/arch changes too much of a problem?
