Thanks, note that testing in Fedora has found a minor issue when running headless (with the dummy driver),
so a v3 of the patch-set is coming up, see:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1203780#c8

I'm waiting from feedback from the reporter before posting v3.

In the mean time you can grab v3 of the patch-set here:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~jwrdegoede/xserver/

(it is now 3 patches).

Regards,

Hans
