Well, like I said, I have no intention to kill the 3.x servers in general for woody. What I *was* going to do was kill the server binaries or SVGA modules for all hardware that had at least unaccelerated support in 4.0. I could be persuaded to change my criteria. What servers and SVGA modules are built is a matter of editing one .cf file. -- G.
