Hello,

After nearly a year after the announcement of the Xserver 1.18.0 stable release in Nov 2015, the OpenIndiana project will launch a port of Xserver 1.18.4 stable release.

Please let the oi-dev team know if you have any issues with the video or input drivers. Also, if you
have a specific video GPU or input device you want supported, let us know as well.

Please review previously reported video driver issues and testing here:

Thanks,

Thanks for your work. I tested this on Acer Laptop with Intel Broadwell-U Integrated Graphics and NVIDIA GPU GK208M [GeForce 920M]. It works but there is still only the vesa driver working (like with Xorg 1.14).
For tests I also attempt to use the NVIDIA driver 367.57, intel driver built from git and also nouveau but all without success. All my recipes for that in:
