Ok, Daniel's message didn't hit my inbox for some reason, so I just saw the bit about it being in the new hal version. I'm reassigning this to hal since it looks like all the .fdi files that hal itself ships belong to that package, and x11-input.fdi is in that category. Sjoerd can reassign it if I got it wrong. - David Nusinow -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I just notice that with a couple of exceptions, all .fdi files seem shipped by HAL packages. It might make sense to include x11-input.fdi as an example though. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://tungstengraphics.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer
