As I remember, we ship with only a static libXinerama becuase we are waiting for some agreement from the standards people (X.org ?) so that we can have a stable, standard interface to the library. How is this progressing ? Until there is a standard we can't assume that Xinerama libraries are interchangable between XFree86, Metro-X, Xi, fd.o, or any other vendor's X libraries. -- Andrew C Aitchison _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
