But libqt should also be fixed so that the following work: - -XFree86-3.x (some cards still only have OpenGL with 3.x) - -VNC (which is apparently a hacked version of 3.x) - -3rd-party X Servers - -XServers on other OSs (apparently Exceed on Windows is affected, possibly more) See bug 3081. I adjusted the summary so it reflects all the problems ...
