Re: XF4 binaries, Evolution 0.3 and updated Helix-Gnome

Hi,

Thanks Michel for replying while I'm away from my computer (heh!).
  I compiled this XFree86 4.0.1 on a Debian Potato to which I made no major 
changes. It is a tarball that unpacks in /usr/X11R6.4 (and not /usr/X11R6), so 
shouldn't hurt too much dpkg (a rm -rf /usr/X11R6.4  is enough to remove it).
  The drivers are from Ani Joshi's tree, from last week. He tar'ed up the thing 
for me, so I must thank him by sharing this work. It took me about 1h30 to 
compile the whole thing (iMac 233, 96 megs of ram), and each drivers takes a few 
seconds to compile, FYI, if you try compiling it yourself.
