IIRC not allowing environment variables to change the configuration was supposed to avoid unreproducible bugs. Always printing warnings to stderr may be a good compromise though. If you really need environment variables feel free to commit my patch (with that modification). IMHO changing an option in driconf is as fast as or faster than typing an environment variable. Especially enum options are much more comfortable as you don't have to look up the meaning somewhere else. > > > The attached patch should do the trick. > > Indeed, thanks. > > > Thanks for the new driconf release. > > > -- > Earthling Michel Dänzer \ Debian (powerpc), XFree86 and DRI developer > Software libre enthusiast \ http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer ------------ __\|/__ ___ ___ ------------------------- Felix ___\_e -_/___/ __\___/ __\_____ You can do anything, Kühling (_____\Ä/____/ /_____/ /________) just not everything [EMAIL PROTECTED] \___/ \___/ U at the same time. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
