Re: Compiling X4.0.2

That isn't what I was meant. Go to http://people.debian.org/~cpbotha ,
and you can see that they've got both XFree86 4.0.1 and 4.0.2 there,
packaged for Potato.

If you want the "real thing", you can either upgrade to Sid(unstable),
or temporarily add a deb-src line pointing to unstable and then "apt-get
source <X packages". Compile from there. I wouldn't suggest it, though.
