I'm sorry to disappoint you but it's practically certain that I will not be backporting this code from CVS HEAD. The changes to the XFree86 DDX layer necessary to support the RandR extension are too fundamental to fool with in this way. I'd rather wait until XFree86 upstream is ready to support this code in a production release before unleashing it on Debian users. -- G.
