New xorg-server 1.14.1 has arrived

[Harry33]

We have now xorg-server 1.14.1 in Ubuntu official repos (proposed).
If you have proposed enabled, do not try to upgrade your xorg-server 1.13 branch yet.
It would break the X completely.
There is a ABI change:
- xorg-input-abi-18 to xorg-input-abi-19
- xorg-video-abi-13 to xorg-video-abi-14

Before a successful installation we need new graphic drivers and input drivers built against the new ABIs.

Here:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/saucy/+...4.1-0ubuntu0.8

Thanks, for the *WARNING* Harry!

Actually, I think I'll wait for Ricotz to release a 'xserver-xorg-core' upgrade, before replacing 1.13

Great news. Thanks for the heads up.

Yes, unfortunately.

[dino99]

the installation/upgrade can be done now, except it remove unity (need at least 7.02) and also unity-tweak-tool.

if you have activated

ppa:ubuntu-unity/daily-build

then the whole upgrade can be done without trouble.

Thank You!
One more pebble in my show called 13.10...

Update₁: Nope, That did not help... Same situation...

It works fine here(1.14.1) with Nvidia 319.32, but only on the daily kernel from 0107, any later daily kernel fails to build the nvidia-blob and the official 3.10.0-1 freezes during boot even without Nvidia. I haven't tried 3.10.0-2, it's possible it works. Good that the daily from 0107 works anyway, I wonder how long before I can update it

I don't use ppa:ubuntu-unity/daily-build...

Nvidia-325 (the latest beta release) from xorg-edgers is just fine.
I use it with main line kernel (3.10.0-031000).

Nvidia-325, good you mentioned that one, forgot about it. Yes, it runs fine too on 3.10.0-999-generic from the first of July. But now I don't have the patience to test more kernels today
