IMO XFree86 doesn't current meet that criterion in its present state anyway, notwithstanding the stupid Xsession.d/99* bug. I mean, come on, the server's module loader doesn't even *work* on m68k and arm at present, and is glitchy on alpha and ia64. Futhermore I regularly get grave or critical bugs filed because a particular video driver doesn't work. Do we keep X out of testing, or from releasing with the next stable distribution, because it doesn't work right on certain hardware? You tell me. -- G.
