I don't know exactly what they're for, the host.def shipped in the DRI CVS tree suggests that they might help for debugging some problems, but I've never needed them, and they've been broken for a long time (lib/GL/mesa/dri was moved to lib/GL/dri) without many complaints. :) -- Earthling Michel D�nzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
