I'm asking because the changes can be slightly complicated for proposed updates as it's needed to change configure.ac and /debian files, add /man/Makefile.am and the manual. No, addition of a manpage wouldn't be accepted in a stable update. Cheers, Julien -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Package: xserver-xorg-video-s3 Version: 1:0.3.5.4-3 Severity: normal Hi, Since xfree86 4.x never supported many of the various s3 chipsets properly, I would expect a man page for xserver-xorg-video-s3 to document which chipsets are now supported, as well as which config file options are supported. IOW, a normal server man page is needed for this driver. I am not about to upgrade my system, since such an upgrade is a one way street, until I have some confidence that my chipset (968 with IBM 526 Ramdac) is now supported. There is however, much hope from the driver's binary text found in the *.deb file, $ strings ./usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/s3_drv.so | grep 526 IBMramdac526SetBppWeak IBMramdac526SetBppWeak IBMramdac526CalculateMNPCForClock Thanks, -- Jeffrey Sheinberg -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/etch APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i586) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-486 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
