Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.0.1-3
Hi there,
after upgrading from 3.3.6 to 4.* my X(Free86) is out of order, i don't
get it running any more on my own. I took a
look on debian-x mailing list and found one similar problem (Michiel
Mieeuwissens's), which ended up (AFAIK) with no
solutuon.
a short question:
where to ask or discuss about contents of a Debian distribution, what
belongs to it or will be taken into distribution?
I wonder why nisplus is not provided by Debian's...
