Hullo there,
Many thanks for being crazy enough to maintain the X debs.
I recently 'upgraded' to testing + X4, and had the following problems:
On build in archives on 3/5/2001:
No XF86Config-4 file created (even though I was asked questions by X4 that were like xf86config)
xf86config ran and created XF86Config-4, but this file claimed to be unable to get video modes.
Changing driver in XF86Config-4 to 'nv' (I have Creative 3DBlaster with Nvidia chipset) made X
work when called as XF86Config.
Neither xdm nor startx succeed; they wait forever for Xserver to start accepting connections.
.xsession files seem not to be executed, probably because I am calling X directly.
I hope this is not useless information, but I also cannot find anywhere on your X Strike Force website
a mention of how severe of a problem should be reported to you, or where it should be reported, or what
forum to watch for more information.. I think that a short list of 'known problems' and 'when/where to
talk/listen'would get you more useful information from testers.
Happy Hacking!
