Irrelevant (what gets done for Linux by XFree86 et all gets to FreeBSD > pretty quickly) What gets done by XFree86 is not relevant .

My previous posting was an instant knee jerk reaction which was very hard to control. Got to exercise and train my knee a little bit better . -- Amancio Hasty hasty@rah.star-gate.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
