FYI - XFree86 v3.3.2 is still based on X11R6.3, you can verify by checking the release notes included in the .tgz's. Also, www.XFree86.org claims they have no scheduled release date for version 4.0. Now here's my assumption: this is most likely the first based on X11R6.4 ;-) Michael! To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
