I'm inclined to move the xorg-server-1.18.0 ticket to hold status until we
get updated drivers.
What do you think?
If nobody else replies, I think that sounds like a good idea.
Whether updated video drivers fix the issues is, of course, a
different question. For intel I'm not sure if there will be a
release any time soon. I think that the ati driver might be heading
towards a release (based on a comment on a patch the other day).
For nouveau (I'm subscribed, although I don't have the hardware :)
I've seen several requests in bug reports asking people to retest
with the 4.3 kernel, I'm not sure if you are using that on the
machine in question ?
I'm still using a 4.2.0 kernel right now. I don't think the kernel side
is the problem. I can't compile the nouveau drivers due to changes in the
Xorg API.
I assume that you cannot run the intel driver to see if it works ?
My development system has a nvidia card, but my laptop (which I use as an
alternate development system) has integrated Intel video. I just need to
build the packages there.
I am disappointed with upstream. I did a git clone of the nouveau driver
and it builds/runs perfectly. Their last change was on September 13,
although the last 'stable' was 14 months ago.
