I'm confused. I've seen this a bunch of times, and I don't understand why Canonical submitted a patch to a video driver to "support" their Xmir window server. Why does a video driver need to have code in it to support a window server? Isn't it supposed to be the other way around? Isn't the window server supposed to work on top of the video driver (and all the other hardware drivers)? What's going on?
