For the moment my work is purely formal: I want X11 packages to compile cleanly and without ad hoc patches on NetBSD so that I can start tracking some bugs related to DRM (may be kernel side but also user side). So I can't help you on this for now. Once I have fixed things superficially, I will have to dive more in the guts on the things. I may then revisit this issue and try to help on this if you have not finished what you are working on at this moment. -- Thierry Laronde <tlaronde +AT+ kergis +dot+ com> http://www.kergis.com/ http://kertex.kergis.com/ Key fingerprint = 0FF7 E906 FBAF FE95 FD89 250D 52B1 AE95 6006 F40C
