Note that when Keith says not full featured, he means things like:
1) no DRI (not needed by the apps).
2) new frame buffer code (fully conformant, much smaller, and
provides all pixmap depths, generally faster than the old code).
3) no XAA (don't need it: PDA's are generally dumb frame buffers).
It is a fully functional and conformant X server with all the commonly
used extensions, NOT a second class citizen in the X world.
The last time I checked, the server I build has:
BIG-REQUESTS
FontCache
MIT-SHM
MIT-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD
SHAPE
SYNC
TOG-CUP
XC-MISC
XFree86-Bigfont
The bigfont one isn't needed either, but there was a build bug that
made it easier to leave in. I expect we'll have to add the input extension
back in sometime.
