Thanks Tiago,

Is there a way(a command), to check if Xephyr on my distribution,
does not need this patch ?

I am on x86_64, Ubuntu 7.10(X.org 1.3)

Xephyr Version is  "xserver-xephyr 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-12ubuntu8 in amd64 (Release)"
Here is the build log(did not see your patch, makes sense since you
say its already accepted upstream):
(http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9584117/buildlog_ubuntu-gutsy-amd64.xorg-server_2%3A1.3.0.0.dfsg-12ubuntu8_FULLYBUILT.txt.gz)

warm regards

Jojo
