      x11: refactor display manager targets · 510e2933
      Anton Midyukov authored
      use/x11/dm allows to switch between display managers
      and cleans up the common bits of configuration too.

      x11: drop fglrx support · e18765b4
      Michael Shigorin authored
      It's missing in sisyphus (and the last maintainer
      was desperate with efforts required to keep it going),
      just drop the cruft; if it ever returns, we'll revert this.

      x11: rework free/proprietary driver support · 55ab1a48
      Michael Shigorin authored
      The problem at hand was that use/x11/xorg has been final,
      and zerg@ just couldn't switch from nouveau to nvidia
      when kdesktop needs that one.
      
      Initial approach included a "big" FREE/PROP switch that
      chose the particular KMODULES/PACKAGES to get added to
      THE_* but that fails to achieve e.g. nvidia+radeon combo;
      looks like these need individual switches.

      x11: driver and purpose related refactoring · ea8a9089
      Michael Shigorin authored
      This has had several goals:
      - a target suitable for x86 and armh providing a rather
        minimal set of base xorg packages and generic drivers;
      - task-oriented targets for graphics use cases:
        + "desktop" means rather 2D focus with 3D being welcome
          or even essential but not performance critical, thus
          "a slower driver is fine as long as it does work";
        + "3d" means specific 3D performance being critical,
          that is "no 3D means no use at all".
      
      Regarding the free and proprietary 3D-capable drivers:
      the previous idea was to split out some common ground
      and then add the contenders on top of that; the current
      approach is based on the observation that the live images
      requiring proprietary NVIDIA/AMD drivers *by default*
      are usually of not much use with hardware that lacks
      proper 3D acceleration (like Tseng cards) or the driver
      support for that (like Matrox these days).
      
      Intel videodriver makes for a special case though:
      it is both free and top-notch performer.
      
      Thanks sem@ and boyarsh@ for discussion.
      
      PS: xorg-drv-{keyboard,mouse,void} dropped;
      those who need these can usually help themselves.
