Uh, I was kind of planning on recruiting some folks to rip that thing open and Debianizing it for the potato release. I already have the latest Red Hat diffs in my X work directory on various machines, and was going to go through them for potato X. I'm just still working on kicking slink X out of the nest. Would you mind doing this work under the umbrella of the X Strike Force? I'd like to ship the X configurator in xserver-common once it's ready for prime time. == Amateur Radio, when all else fails! http://www.qsl.net/wa2mze Debian Gnu Linux, Live Free or ..... _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
