xlibs have gone through their 1.0 release, although problems still exist |
| 10 |
(for example, libXt requires XFree86 to be installed to build properly, |
| 11 |
although a fix is not difficult and initial patches have already been |
| 12 |
made). |

As for the xserver project, the kdrive architecture won't be turning |
| 15 |
into a replacement for XFree86. However some work is being done to |
| 16 |
import the XFree86 DDX into there, so drivers etc will build and work. |

xserver.freedesktop.org and xlibs.freedesktop.org have more info. |
