It is not a matter of how many people there are out there
swapping back and forth, but more a matter of trying to maintain
XFree86 in a sane manner for a major Linux distribution.  I get
about one report a week if not more about "can't get my Voodoo 5
to work".

IMHO it is something that should be done automatically by
software.  I'm willing to do it, but I am looking for input on
how to do it correctly.
