There was one warning worth noting, during the "dh_movefiles" substitute: cp: cannot stat `/redhat/packages/xfree86-4.1.0/debian/tmp/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/tdfx.o': No such file or directory Now the bad news: it doesn't work. :-( The debugging loader churns out over 30 MB of stuff, then dies with: ElfGetSymbolNameIndex(6b,a) afbCreateDefColormap 1 0 0 FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO: Invalid argument Fatal server error: AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0 The (huge!) log and XF86Config (generated by debconf) are at: http://lyre.mit.edu/~powell/debs/XFree86.0.log http://lyre.mit.edu/~powell/debs/XF86Config-4 Does this much (this little) progress justify including the above patches in the X package?
