      + debian/patches/214_glx_dri_searchdirs.patch:
        Search in same paths as mesa for DRI drivers for AIGLX so we can handle
        UMS fallback for radeon gracefully.
  * 211_glx_fix_bindtextimageext_length_check.patch:
  * 212_fix_request_length_check_for_createglxpbuffersgix.patch:
    - Drop; these cherry-picks are included in 1.10RC2
  * debian/patches/214_glx_dri_searchdirs.patch:
    - Fix nouveau check to downgrade missing DRI error messages to info.
      We don't support nouveau's 3D, so let's not complain too strenuously
      when it's not installed.
  * debian/patches/215_glx_drawable_refcounting.diff:
    - Refcount GLXDrawables to avoid use-after-free crashes.  Patch from
      xorg-devel mailing list.  Prevents segfault on logout and server
      regenerate, and possibly other times. (LP: #711422)
  * 214_glx_dri_searchdirs.patch:
    - Fix dlclose/free snafu. (LP: #722563)
  * debian/inputabiver:
  * debian/videoabiver:
  * debian/xserver-xorg-dev.install
    - Temporarily re-add these to xserver-xorg-dev so we don't need to merge
      all the driver changes from Debian en masse.  These should be dropped
      once all drivers have been merged from Debian, and certainly in Natty+1.
  * debian/serverminver:
    - Include 2ubuntu1 string; Xi 2.1 bumps the minor input ABI, so drivers
      built against it need the Xi 2.1 patched server.

  [ Timo Aaltonen ]
  * debian/patches/216_dix-valuator-count-of-0-is-valid.diff:
    - For all but motion and proximity events, having no valuators is ok.
      Regression from 1.9, keyboard events are not converted to protocol
      events. (LP: #714696)

  [ Chase Douglas ]
  * Add in preliminary xi2.1 support
    - Added 500_xi2.1.patch
    - Moved 202_xf86CoordinationsToWindows.patch to
      501_xf86CoordinatesToWindow.patch
    - Moved 203_gestures-extension.patch to 502_gestures-extension.patch
    - Bump dependency on x11proto-input for xi 2.1
