Joys of X4 upgrade



Hello World,

I've just run apt-get dist-upgrade

and now more or less am running testing.

The task presently ocupying me is configuring XF86 4

What I can do:
	run everything X 4 except the the actual xserver (which is the X
	3.3.6 SVGA server. This works and runs my window manager
	enlightenment.

	run the X4 server xserver-xfree86 with TWM.
	most apps seem to run fine

What I can't do:
	run the X 4 server with enlightenment. - it complains that
	Xlib:  extension "SHAPE" missing on display ":0.0".
	and suggests I upgrade to a more recent version of X...

	this error also occurs when I try to run xf86cfg (from under X)
	though it is at least bright enough not to suggest an upgrade


has anyone any ideas about this?

Today people in droves hurry up past Heumoz to Villars 
on the road to the ski hills, so they can rush down them
as fast as possible, so they can hurry up again in order
to rush down again.  In a way this is funny,...
