The best thing to do is file a bug report in bugzilla at http://bugs.xfree86.org and attach your patch to the bug report as a unified diff (diff -Naur) to the report using the bugzilla file attachment feature. You should ensure the patch applies to the current developmental CVS head first, and compiles ok. If you've got binary drivers pre-prepared, you might want to attach them to the report as well, or point people to a URL where to download them. To determine which binary files are needed, simply take a 4.3.0 installation, and install your driver over top of the supplied one. You may need other modules updated as well. Hope this helps. -- Mike A. Harris _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
