I wish I had some code at hand - but I don't have at a moment. :-( But I would like to highlight one more important issue for XFree86. I think default Window Manager shipped with XFree86 (twm, IIRC) is outdated, not very well configurable plus consumes a lot of space/memory (comparing to minimalist window manager(s) ) What about to include sWM as part of XFree86 distribution? See details below: http://www.small-window-manager.de/ I also cc'ed sWM author, Robert Sperling, as he is probably not subscribed to the list. I think we should review XFree86 distribution/packaging, and addition/replacement like this sounds quite interesting to me. | - Jim | | > Can those problems be fixed for XFree86-4.3.0? | > It takes about one year to flush latest XFree86 to *mainstream users*. | > I know that some people upgrade to XF-4.2.0 just now (they were using | > XF-4.0.x or 4.1.x much longer than you can expect) | > | > So, if there is a possibility to fix something now - it's better to do | > ASAP. | | ttp://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/render | | -- | Jim Gettys | Cambridge Research Laboratory | HP Labs, Hewlett-Packard Company | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | _______________________________________________ | Render mailing list | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/render -- Vadim Plessky http://kde2.newmail.ru (English) 33 Window Decorations and 6 Widget Styles for KDE http://kde2.newmail.ru/kde_themes.html KDE mini-Themes http://kde2.newmail.ru/themes/ _______________________________________________ Render mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/render
