New experimental X 4.0

Hey all


The URL and filenames have changed a bit:

http://n.ethz.ch/student/daenzerm/download/XFree86/

This is 4.0b .


Good news for the Permedia2 people: DGA support is here. It's not tested
though...

The other important thing is support for the latest PowerBooks in the r128
driver.


Michel

Did you use my patch or did you fix the r128 driver yourself ? Also, did
you already submit the patch to xfree ? (I didn't submit mine yet, I was
planning to do so once I've fixed the PLL/BIOS probe)

And how about the fbdev framebuffer memory start offset problem? Anybody
looking at that?

hi,
The URL and filenames have changed a bit:

http://n.ethz.ch/student/daenzerm/download/XFree86/

This is 4.0b .
the linux-apus link has to be changed then.
Good news for the Permedia2 people: DGA support is here. It's not tested
though...
oh, I'm SUR that will be tested quite comprehensively over the next few
weeks - what are the main user-land apps people are complaining about?
