    New Xorg server ABI

    They have bumped the Xorg server version to 1.7.99

    http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/b...buildID=152218


    This means that people using the nvidia driver will need to add this to xorg.conf


    Code:
    Section "ServerFlags" 
        Option "IgnoreABI" "true" 
    EndSection

    Hi leigh123linux,
    I noticed the ABI problem after today's updates. I have put that option in my xorg.conf,but that doesn't seem to have an effect.I still have to issue
    Code:
    startx -- -ignoreABI
    from init 3

    I'll attach my xorg.conf to this reply.

    Regards,
    STEVE555

    Update nouveau, you shouldn't need to add Option "IgnoreABI" "true" to xorg.conf

    Hi leigh123linux,
    I solved my problem,I use the xf86-video-nouveau drivers from git.All I had to do was a re-compile and I've set Option "IgnoreABI" to "false" in my xorg.conf. and I get the new User Account Dialogue (it keeps sending me to the Gnome Desktop,but that is another story).

    I would like to thank you very much for your help.

    Regards,
    STEVE555

    The new nouveau driver works fine here.

    Code:
    [leigh@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa |grep -e nouveau -e Xorg |sort
    xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-0.0.15-15.20091217gitbb19478.fc13.x86_64
    xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.7.99.3-1.20100120.fc13.x86_64
    [leigh@localhost ~]$ uname -r
    2.6.33-0.20.rc5.git0.fc13.x86_64
    [leigh@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
    cat: /etc/X11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory
    [leigh@localhost ~]$ glxinfo |grep direct
    direct rendering: Yes
    [leigh@localhost ~]$ lsmod |grep nouveau
    nouveau               331898  2
