If the server market is the biggest (and for Linux it is) then only 2D support if that is required. I'd bet even the big film studios don't use Linux to view the final rendering. They probably use a Mac (Apple OS of some kind) or a PC running Windows. > Fred Error Loading Explorer.exe You must reinstall Windows. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
