Do you even have a libXxf86dga.so file? I am running sid and I don't 
have that anymore though I created it from libXxf86dga.a

ld --whole-archive -shared -o libXxf86dga.so libXxf86dga.a

I have no idea what, if any, problems this may cause with future 
upgrades and such so use it at your own risk. All I know is my programs 
will run again.


On a completely unrelated topic, would it be considered innapropriate 
for me to use the list address as the return email for messages I post 
here?  I have no need to receive direct replies and would rather not be 
spreading my real email for spammers to collect (the return on this 
message is a little fudged). Is there an etiquette document somewhere?
Thanks
