[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: mesa-7.11.2-1

I have updated the Mesa OpenGL implementation to 7.11.2 with numerous
packaging changes:

* The swrast DRI drivers are now in a separate dri-drivers package.

* the Gallium swrast driver is now available and includes llvmpipe
support.  At this time, you must set GALLIUM_DRIVER=llvmpipe in your
environment before starting the X server in order to use it.

* EGL and OpenVG support was added, and OSMesa support was restored.

* All OpenGL components are linked against the new shared libglapi0.

Please note when upgrading mesa, you must also upgrade xorg-server to
1.11.4-3.  Previous versions of xorg-server will NOT work with this
version of mesa.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: xorg-server-1.11.4-3

The following packages have been updated in the Cygwin distribution:

*** xorg-server-1.11.4-3
*** xorg-server-dmx-1.11.4-3

These packages contain XWin and the other X.Org X11 servers.

This is an update to align with the update to mesa 7.11.  You should upgrade
libGL1 to 7.11.2-1 at the same time as upgrading the X server to 1.11.4-3, or
you may experience X server crashes when using OpenGL applications which use
indirect rendering.

The following cygwin-specific changes have been made since 1.11.4-2:

* Fall back to mesa software rendering rather than using the GDI Generic
native renderer (when -wgl is enabled)
* Synchronize the indirect function dispatch table offsets with mesa 7.11
* Use shared libglapi for dispatch table

How to properly start xwin at windows seven startup?

I've had an old version of Cygwin running on a WinXP laptop for quite
a while.  I made it run "startxwin.bat" on startup.  I'm now setting
up the latest Cygwin on a Win7 laptop.  The FAQ is saying to not use
the "startxwin.bat" file (as it doesn't exist anymore), and use the
exe file. However, it also says to not start it directly from Windows.
 It needs to be started from a login shell.  What is the proper way to
start the Xwin server at Windows startup?  I didn't see this in the
FAQ, and I didn't find any obvious answers in searches.

xwin.exe 1.11.4-1 segmentation fault on startup (-wgl -multiwindow)

Hello,

when I invoke xwin.exe for hardware accelerated OpenGL (AIGLX)

$ xwin -wgl -multiwindow

a segmentation fault occurs. This happens with the latest version (1.11.4-1), but I already had the same
problem with my first installation of the X server (1.11.3-1).

Attached please find cygcheck.out (sensitive data deleted) and XWin.0.log for further details.

Somebody with an idea what is going wrong here? Thank you.

- Christian

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: xorg-server-1.11.4-1

The following packages have been updated in the Cygwin distribution:

*** xorg-server-1.11.4-1
*** xorg-server-dmx-1.11.4-1

These packages contain XWin and the other X.Org X11 servers.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This release changes the default settings so that the -resize
and -wgl options are turned on by default.  If that causes issues, please let
us know, and either revert to the previous version, or turn off those features
using the -noresize and -nowgl options. (See [2] for help on how to do that)

In addition to upstream fixes [1], this contains the following cygwin-specific
changes since 1.11.4-1:

* Enable RANDR resize (option -resize) by default
* Enable AIGLX (option -wgl) by default
* Ignore bogus WM_DISPLAYCHANGE messages that have 0 bpp (Thanks to Colin
Harrison for patch)
* Avoid WIN_WINDOW_PROP races which could cause a crash during Windows window
destruction (Reported by Rodrigo Medina)
* Restore modifier key state when an X window gains focus (Thanks to Oliver
Schmidt for patch)
* RANDR resize didn't occur, in windowed mode, with option -resize, when the
window was maximized or restored. (Thanks to Colin Harrison for patch)
* Fix rrScreenSetSize function pointer mismatch (Thanks to Ryan Pavlik for patch)
* Add Windows 8 to the list of Windows versions we know the name of
