Perhaps XFree86 should learn a trick from the Linux kernel -- if you load a binary module that isn't open source then the kernel becomes "tainted". In case of a kernel panic it will say that it is tainted -- it is a way to cut down bugreports/redirect them to the right place. A kernel panic with tainted modules loaded is almost never the kernel's fault -- and in any case the kernel developers don't stand much of a chance for debugging it.
Likewise an XFree86 problem with NVidia's binary drivers is probably not anything that the XFree86 developers can fix (except for Mark Vojkovich, of course :) ). -Peter _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
