I think NOT. The snapshots are an additional service to have a wider basis for testing. Endusers should stay with there distros (they are for packaging all the stuff for the different architectures) and if they are not experienced to compile the current XFree/DRI CVS trees themself they should stay away. -Dieter -- Dieter Nützel Graduate Student, Computer Science University of Hamburg Department of Computer Science @home: Dieter.Nuetzel at hamburg.de (replace at with @) ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
