No problems with .15 here. I've emerged it twice so far I think (rebuilding the system). No noticible changes either.
Anyone have any ideas on how to control pointer speed when using the evdev driver? xset doesn't seem to have any effect.

| Can any one who uses the versions over 8 tell me if direct rendering is working. I have noticed that libGl might be broken. |

| i'm talking about the standard x11 ones, nvidia provides their own propraitary ones. So this basically applies to all those who don't use ati or nvidia cards. |

Exactly the same here.
Btw, why is this thread in Unsupported Software? |

Seems like gcc wants to optimize and inline a function containing some assembler code. As this is inlined twice, the resulting code contains the same labels more than once and results in this error. I managed to avoid this error by compiling the file manually without -O3. Continuing the build right now, hopefully it works 
Perhaps this is useful to someone... |

This works, indeed! The question: is O3 for xorg-x11 suddenly "overoptimized"?
I guess not (it worked all the time before). Wild guess: O2 just skips the buggy code. |

Did anyone submit that bug to the people at xorg? They should really know about that if it is a serious problem. I'm compiling the new one now. If I encounter a problem I'll post it. Has anyone seen any speed ups in this one?

Have a look at the change log. The last changes were done by Donnie Berkholz.
His e-mail suggests he's a gentoo developer... The problem is, this thread
doesn't belong into the Unsupported Software forum at all.
Unstable/Testing != unsupported. Looks like none of the devs (and even not
the moderater) are taking care of this forum. And right so: they don't have to.
The sticky announcement ("About this Forum") makes it clear. |

Doesn't the fact that you have to unmask the pack make it unsupported? Besides these are prereleases of 6.9.0 right? I agree with you that there should be a testing forum but for now I guess we'll have to make due with this forum. I just got finished installing 6.8.99.15 and I noticed that my ram consumption is now 30 Megs higher...I'm not complaining but has anyone else noticed this?

Reading the announcement is too much for you? Well, then I have to bring it to you (part of it):
| sticky announcement, first post in this forum wrote: | Portage contains stable and testing (unstable) packages. Is this some kind of experimental portage tree?
In no way. Things you find here are in no way associated with portage. Most of it will never find its way into portage. |
| Master Shake wrote: | | Besides these are prereleases of 6.9.0 right? |
Don't know, but from the version number I'd say so.
| Master Shake wrote: | | I agree with you that there should be a testing forum but for now I guess we'll have to make due with this forum. |
Where did I say that, can you read my mind? Actually I had the same thoughts but droped them very soon cause it only would make sense if stable/unstable would mean what it suggest. Fact is that more often than not applications in the 'unstable' branch are running better than the 'stable' ones, particularly some of the big ones (firefox, xorg etc.). But don't get me wrong: this does not mean recommending a complete unstable/testing installation.
What I did say was that this thread just doesn't belong to this forum. What I did not say (but what I think): it clearly should go into "Desktop Environments" as from its description that's the place (among others) for "Questions about X".
| Master Shake wrote: | | I just got finished installing 6.8.99.15 and I noticed that my ram consumption is now 30 Megs higher...I'm not complaining but has anyone else noticed this? |
No. What do you mean exactly with "ram consumption" and where do you see it? The only thing I've noticed so far is the gdm page building up signifcantly slower (I never could watch it building up, now I can. Still <1sec. though, so no big deal, just odd). Other than this, everything is the same as before or even "feels" a bit snapier. Can have other reasons, though (something was wrong with my themes, so I did some re-installing). |

If you do a free -m or look in a kde or gnome system monitor it will tell you how much ram is being consumed or used. I have also noticed that I can watch gdm draw itself.

6.8.99.15 compiled fine for me overnight with the rest of a world update. My CFLAGS is "-Os -march=athlon-tbird -fomit-frame-pointer -funit-at-a-time -pipe".

Xorg 6.8.99.15 segfaults here. 
Currently recompiling .14 now (note to self: use `quickpkg` for large things!  )

.15 is working fine here and I've emerged it 4 times without issue.
On AMD64, both sets of cflags worked fine.
| Code: |
CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O3 -ftracer -pipe -fforce-addr -fpeel-loops -funswitch-loops"
CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 -ftracer -pipe"
|
System is ~arch, nothing masked.

That's correct. Acctually it's also the prereleases of 7.0 also since 6.9 and 7.0 will be released simultaneously with the same set of features, only that 7.0 will be autotooled and 6.9 will use the old imake build system. |

Doesn't seem to be an xorg related problem. I just downgraded to 6.8.2 (not w/o quickpkg 6.8.99 at first) and it's still there. |

What is the difference between autotooled and imake...sorry for being a newb with that stuff.

I think I like the idea of the modules that it was talking about. It seems easier to maintain and easier/less intimidating for newer coders, like myself, to examen the code.
