Description

I see builds from the testing branch fail to start X, while previous versions worked just fine. It seems that due to the changes we introduced with Bug #11500, the QXL driver is used in all cases, regardless of the actual hardware. I think we need to revert these changes for 2.4.

Ack, fixed now in revert commit:e156ad2619d9ca53f1bb10c94bec4e928a423f06 that’s now in both testing and devel. I’ll reopen Bug #11500 and propose a fix…
