The following package has been updated in the Cygwin distribution:

*** xorg-server-1.8.2-1
*** xorg-server-dmx-1.8.2-1

This is an update to the latest upstream release of the X servers.

Support for RANDR display resizing was added.  In windowed mode, this
requires the XWin -resize option; in multiwindow mode, the display will
automatically resize to match a change in Windows display resolution.
See XWin(1) for details.

Additional patches:
- Generate X keycodes for multimedia keys.
- Update mapping for Canadian keyboard layouts.
- Add -resize command line option.
- Internal WM workaround for Java AWT bug.
- Fix a GDI bitmap resource leak of window icons.
- Store pthread_ids and chain IOError handlers to avoid longjmp across
threads.
- Make select() poll and not block if there are unprocessed Windows
messages.
- Better keyboard debugging output.
- Show any fatal error message.
