Hello,
Nice to hear about the future 4.0 plan. i agree with most of what you propose.
I have a question conerning the 3D stuff.
Glx will be included in XF 4.0, but this is a point that will most assuredly
confuse lots of people.
In fact, (if i understood this issue correctly, which i am still

If so, that's news to me and I've been following the XFree86 developers'
list for months. Suppo
lookup_variable (ip, var, strlen(var));
} while (s);
It did seem to fix the problem. If someone who understands cppsetup.c
could comment and it turns out that this patch doesn't in fact disable some
feature of cppsetup, I will submit this patch to XFree86.
Anyway, XFree86 4.0 built with

...users AND my fellow develo
I have been getting a fair amount of mail about this so I thought I would
mail two of the most widely-read lists Debian has. Hopefully folks will
agree with me that XFree86 4.0 support has ramifications for both users and
developers. I don't subscribe to -user, so I will not see replies p

I just read on LinuxToday that XFree86 4.0 has been
released. It is still considered 'unstable' so I
guess it will in 'Woody'.

I was wondering if we could pkg it alongside XF3.3.6 in potato (but then
again, I wondered why we couldn't do this with the 2.2 kernel in slink).
