Hi,
Unless someone comes along and does a reasonable amount of coding before
mga2, I think we'll have to deprecate supporting startx (it can still be
used in some circumstances, but audio and accelerated graphics will not
be available).
See this comment (and the link therein) for more info on the issue:
https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4652#c9
What is the operational translation of 'deprecating support of foo' ?
automatic answer "no support" to any user reporting issue with it ?
removing it from the distribution ?
While I don't care about the first one, I do care about the second
interpretation. Given the very high fragility of the gnome environment
nowadays, using old-days tools to workaround those various issues is
frequently useful.
Well, deprecating something usually means:
"it's still there, but will be removed somewhen in the future.
So find something else..."
Doesn't it?
