X.Org X11 6.8.2rc2 (6.8.1.902) was released yesterday, and is now available for testing for Fedora Core users in rawhide. This is the second release candidate of what will become 6.8.2 in the coming weeks. The 6.8.x series is a stable bugfix only series which fixes bugs in 6.8.1 and contains no major new features.
If you have had any problems with 6.8.1 as shipped in Fedora Core 3, or 6.7.0 as shipped in Fedora Core 2, please upgrade to 6.8.1.902 in rawhide and test it well to see if the problems you may have experienced have been fixed now. Please close any open bug reports in both Red Hat and X.Org bugzilla if you have filed a bug against X.Org and it is no longer present in the new RC2 rpms.
Fedora Core 3 and rawhide users are both encouraged to do this, as we will be releasing 6.8.2 as an update for FC3 once it is finalized.
Additionally, if you experience any regressions or other new problems that did not occur in 6.8.1 or earlier, please report these problems directly to X.Org, via the X.Org bugzilla at freedesktop.org: http://bugs.freedesktop.org in the "xorg" component. This will ensure that all X.Org developers have a chance to see the bug report and possibly develop a solution for the final 6.8.2 release.
Thanks in advance for testing.

You have to wait, Red Hat like their early announcements :-)

I don't know if I correctly understand you.

Actually, we're considering doing just that. ;o) We want to have people test for a few days first however to guage any major problems or regressions. Also there is at least one glitch I'd like to fix prior to a push to /testing/. Sometimes upgrades cause xorg.conf to get renamed to xorg.conf.backup
In the mean time, please test the rpms posted in my first posting or from rawhide. (they're the same) ;o)
Thanks in advance.

Done. No regression (Matrox Millennium G400).
Same bugs for FC3 original xorg-x11 through current version in rawhide. Tux causes lockups, switching to a VT then back again locks up computer. (Fan races, no response from keys, need hard reset).

Wondering if final 6.8.2 will have support for the new ATI X700 Pro?
I created an entry for "Requesting driver support for the ATI Radeon X700 chipset" : https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1873 back on the 19th of November. Alex Deucher mentioned it shouldn't be a bid deal, but I haven't seen a post since?
Any idea what's happening?
Thanks,
RaXeT
My Dell 600m can sleep (echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep) and resume with this version of X (and the latest FC3 kernel).
There is some problem with the ipw2100 driver, but I just unload it before sleeping as a temporary hack.
Thanks!
Philip

Just tried this on new hardware. The rpms from the official updates as well as these rawhide rpms exhibit the same problem for me as bug https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2055 See the bug for details, but the gist of it is that I can't get my nVidia GeForce4 MX 4000 AGP 8x card to drive my Viewsonic 201b 1600x1200 FlatPanel LCD over the DVI interface at it's maximum (1600x1200) resolution. VGA works fine at 1600x1200 with the "nv" driver, and both VGA and DVI work fine with the proprietary binary-only "nvidia" driver at the max resolution.
