Hi,
I was wondering if some dev out there could spend say 2-5 minutes
and post an email that lists all of the possible knobs that can
be turned. I know there's a bunch, but they're scattered though
several postings and hard to find.
For example:

This isn't really DRI specific, but I don't know where else
to ask.
I just built + installed X from cvs, and it didn't build
the pex5 or xie libs. I'm not even really sure what these
do, but my other machine that I built a while back with
X + DRI from DRI cvs has them both.
What should I look f
I've read that the most current DRI code is now
in the XFree86 CVS. Is there any particular
tag that is considered stable since 4.1.0 ?
Should I just get 4.1.0?
I'd like in particular the latest ATI Radeon code
that will work with the gatos atixv stuff, and
the latest/best Matrox G400 code.
