Hi all,

One big issue has come up with modular X, which is now fixed in 
xorg-server 1.0.2-r1. The problem is that upstream released new versions 
of a couple of extensions (composite and xfixes), but didn't release an 
xorg-server including the updated knowledge of these extensions. The 
code for this is in upstream CVS, however, so I've pulled it and added 
it to our xorg-server ebuild. Since the composite library lacks any 
version checking, this results in failures, primarily on GTK2 apps, with 
BadRequests error messages.

In summary, if you just installed modular X and your apps are crashing 
with BadRequests, emerge xorg-server 1.0.2-r1.

Thanks,
Donnie
