* Sat May 19 2018 sndirsch@suse.com
- Update to version 13.3.0
* This release provides dri3 support for recent mesa (XA version
2.4+), build support for xserver 1.20, a number of compilation
warning fixes, removal of old Xwayland and Xmir support, and a
couple of minor bug fixes.
* Note that linux distros that choose to not compile in kernel
modesetting- and 3D should avoid enabling the vmwgfx linux
kernel module.
* As usual, the release is intended to be usable even with old
X servers, but testing for older servers (xserver 1.0+) has
been limited to compile-testing only. Dedicated functionality
testing has been run on xserver 1.19.99 series.
* Tue May 30 2017 sndirsch@suse.com
- includes everything needed for missing sle issue entries:
fate #315643-315645, 319159-319161, 319618 (bsc#1041651)
* Sat Nov 19 2016 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
- Update to version 13.2.1:
This release provides support for adapting to a desktop configuration (read
VMware GUI configuration) exposed using drm connectors rather than using
RandR12+. Since this is the way gnome-shell/Wayland adapts to a desktop
configuration this driver can coexist with an auto-fit multimonitor VMware
gnome-shell/Wayland configuration and therefore enables future open-vm-tools
versions to expose GUI configuration changes through drm connectors at system
start-up time without using the xorg driver as a proxy.
It also contains a compilation fix for ABI 23 (Xserver 1.19).
