== Description ==

xorg-server 1.11.1 contains two brownbag fixes for issues found in 1.11.0.
With this release, we are "resetting" the standard 6 week release cycle.
1.11.2 RC1 will be out in 3 weeks, and the branch is open for nominations for
general bug fixes.  See the wiki (link below) if you are unfamilair with the
process.

== Known Issues ==

Important issues are listed in the 1.11 tracker bug:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=xserver-1.11

* #22566: [from 1.5.x] Random artifacts whith Composite extension enabled
  * This is a longstanding issue without much motion, needs status update
* #29251: [from 1.8.x] server crash destroying GLX pixmaps

Soime additional known issues from the 1.12 tracker would be considered for
1.11 if a fix becomes available:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=xserver-1.12

* #4652: Race condition between Xv and Silkenmouse
  * Has a patch, needs testing and review

* #14648: [from 1.6.x] keys occasionally get stuck
* #24094: CTRL-ALT-F1 doesn't switch to VT1 (provides garbage input to terminal instead)
  * XKB weirdness.  This looks diagnosed, so let's get a patch tested.
* #27428: xrandr events delayed until a key is pressed
* #27804: Enter/Leave event woes with multiple master devices
* #31017: [from 1.9.x] Commit 6dd775f57d2f94f0ddaee324aeec33b9b66ed5bc causes background garbage
* #31501: [from 1.8.x] crash accessing font info with xfs in fontpath
* #32765: [from 1.8.x] Xephyr segfaults on 24bpp hosts
