[PATCH] Remove xcalibrate and tslib support

[Mikhail Gusarov]

Twas brillig at 17:06:19 08.07.2010 UTC+02 when awg at embtoolkit.org did gyre and gimble:

 AWG> Please don't do that.  I use Kdrive (Xfbdev) with tslib.

Old binaries and source code will not magically disappear :) Given
amount of changes in Kdrive last couple of years new versions of X
server don't bring anything valuable to Xfbdev.

 AWG> Xfbdev + tslib is extremely useful for embedded systems without
 AWG> keyboard, which are driven by a pen. This is the case for many new
 AWG> smart phones for example.

Are there new smartphones which don't feature hardware-accelerated
graphics? Xfbdev is quite useless for anything except plain old
framebuffer.

There was CELF project proposal this year targeting optimization of
Xfree86 server to match memory consumption of Kdrive, while keeping KMS,
newer Xrandr and other features valuable for embedded development.

This project was rejected by the CELF board due to lack of funds. If you
are worried about the development of X server and somehow connected to
smartphones development industry you might want to propose funding of
this proposal instead of reviving Kdrive.
