It is running here very reliable and fast and it seems here, some opengl glitches are gone now, too.
It is super easy to install, it is easy to switch to Xlibre: running Xlibre now  on two different machines and I can not see one issue!

One thing!!!
The installer does not install the Xlibre driver package of the system´ s gpu, so you have to do it yourself.
Very little problem here:
it is working without that driver but some functionality is missing and if you are not an experienced user it might take a while til you find out that you simply have to install the appropriate Xlibre driver package after the Xlibre install.

Issues you might notice if this driver package is not installed:

Xrandr does not find more then one display
brightness of display can not be set
X(libre) session quits sometimes when just closing a window.

Thanks to Enrico Weigelt, the XLibre team and the awesome Artix package maintainers!

Hi guys, I noticed peculiar thing with metalog, namely the [Xorg] tag is garbled which either means there's something really badly allocated within/passed around to/from xlibre or metalog and first things first I'd like to ask you if this happens on your device:

Hi guys, I noticed peculiar thing with metalog

I have run a few searches trough logs, using metalog also, everything seems correct, no broken tags:

205:Jul 15 14:41:55 [Xorg ] 0[25190]: (==) Using config directory: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d"

There are more entries for [Xorg<space>], this is just random selection, but they all look normal.

Edit: line numbers in front of every line are because I searched with 'ag'.

Aight, thanks, so this must be something with my setup. Good thing I asked before writing at xlibre's issues.

Re: XLibre available in galaxy repository

The log issue described here above seems crystal clear to me.
When those things are appearing the situation is always the same, doesn´t matter if on Windows, OSX, Linux, Android or BSD:
you have opened a text file, that has fonts, that weren't recognized by the system, so, you will see these symbols.
Two possible reasons, I guess:
you have to install the missing font package
or
you have to chose another encoding mechanism in the preferences of your text reader.
Xlibre is rock solid.

Re: XLibre available in galaxy repository

No, you are absolutely wrong, everything on my PC is properly configured when it comes to fonts. This was parsed directly to file from faulty stdout. And I already found the issue in Xlibre.

Re: XLibre available in galaxy repository

Did you already report the issue upstream?

Re: XLibre available in galaxy repository

Reply #26 –
Not really, because I'm still debugging and bisecting stuff. Well, as long as it's not overwriting anything in that buffer it shouldn't cause issues (tho it's still bad).
