If this backwards compatibility is causing you such a massive headache, why has it taken you 7 years to complain to us that XFree86 removed PEX & XIE support in their 4.2.0 release in 2002, several years before the current X.Org organization was formed and our development tree was forked from their 4.4rc2 release? http://www.xfree86.org/4.2.0/RELNOTES2.html#5 -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersm...@sun.com Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
