	Hi,

	I've got a related question.  Does the new XFree have
	a new driver aany of the `accelerated' cards?  Anybody 
	know??

	I've got a Cardex Challenger Pro (Tseng4000) and when I
	upgraded to 2.1.5 my mouse began acting strangely.   When
	I click the middle button to empty the buffer, I'll
	invariably have mutliple copies  of the buffer.  --Unless
	I am *VERY* fast on the button, which I'm not.--

	Nothing in my XF86Config file or xset or anything else
	affects this, so I'm guessing that this is a bug in he
	W32 driver.   If -3.2 fixes this, I'm go for it.

	Thanks for any insight...
