Guys, wake up.. Is it really hard to understand that xmatrix is really a non-licensed use of "The Matrix" artwork ? If Jamie or other distributions don't care, fine.. But we DO care, we don't want to get sued.. That is why xmatrix was removed and there is no plan to put it back (except if you get a royalted free license for commercial distribution of xmatrix from "The Matrix" artwork authors..) -- Fr�d�ric Crozat MandrakeSoft
