Dear all,
I've recently switched to a Debian system and I am wondering how to
track the XFree86 CVS version without wreaking havoc with the
packaging system. I'm very happy with my Potato (2.2r2) system, and I
definitely don't want to upgrade libc.

If the Makefile was written well, it will be simple. Open the Makefile
with your favorite editor (vim is mine! :) and look for lines similar to
-DSOMETHING. Add the -DKERNEL_2_3 bit to this line.
Or, if there isn't something that looks right, see if there is a CCFLAGS
line -- and add the -DKERNEL_

Not to mention that the G400 driver for XFree 4 has 3D acceleration as
well. It's currently kinda broken (stencils don't work at all (not even in
software fallback - they're borked), and there are some pretty icky
persistent texturing bugs, but it's usable. Just not very.
Personally, I'm annoyed
you need to reconfigure xserver-common
i believe you cant 'apt-get --reconfigure xserver-common'
and select 'anybbody' to starts windows.
if that is wrong
go to
