The current DRI CVS trunk should build fine though, I suspect there are other configuration problems, e.g. related to Glide. > How do I go about pulling a a specific version of the CVS tree that will > compile cleanly and run ? What version of the code fits this bill? You want the XFree86 CVS, which is currently freezing for the 4.2.0 release. It also has support (if only 2D) for the 8500 which isn't yet in DRI CVS. http://www.xfree86.org/cvs/ -- Earthling Michel D�nzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
