Summary0013006: FindX11.cmake does not expose xf86vidmode library path
DescriptionThe FindX11.cmake module exposes the X11_xf86vmode_FOUND and X11_xf86vmode_INCLUDE_PATH variables, but despite the VidMode extension having its own library (libXxf86vm) at least on modern X.org, there is no corresponding X11_Xxf86vmode_LIB variable.
Steps To Reproduce1. Fail to find variable in the FindX11.cmake file.

Forgot to mention that this isn't just completeness for the sake of it. This variable is necessary for the X11 port of GLFW 3 shared library to be able to link properly.

This is already fixed in cmake git master, as there was already a ticket for it: 0006976 .

You say that "having its own library (libXxf86vm) at least on modern X.org".
Does that mean on older X11 systems the header files may be present, but no library, and still everything is fine ?
In which library is this functionality then, libX11 ?

Ah, I didn't search thoroughly enough then. That's great news, though!

No, I just meant that my own experience is limited to X.org and that this is how it works there.

As mentioned, this is a duplicate of 0006976, which I already fixed.
