I never did find the tuits for testing accel-x, but then I was told about XFree 3.3.4 release with TNT2 support, there are freebsd 3 binaries there (most binaries are not because 3.3.5 should be out RSN). The TNT2 support is better, and the emacs cursor problem is gone but the openlook glyph problem is still there but not a real problem (I'll have to submit a bug report about the glyph problem). Looking good and works fine with 3.2-stable :) P. -- pir pir@pir.net pir@shore.net pir@net.tufts.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
