Bug#318993: xserver-xorg: Debian needs to get Alan Hourihane's updated I810 driver

2005-07-18 Thread Keenan Pepper

Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-3
Severity: important

The current I810 driver /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/i810_drv.o is 
quite unstable and crashes a lot, especially when playing video. Alan 
Hourihane's driver at http://www.fairlite.demon.co.uk/intel.html is much 
better and the latest one has never crashed on my hardware. It suspect 
it will probably fix a few other bugs reported by people with Intel chips.

Bug#318789: libdps1: should be in contrib

2005-07-18 Thread Keenan Pepper

Package: libdps1
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-2
Severity: normal

"In order to fully take advantage of it, DPS extension support is
required in the X server, for which there is currently no
freely-licensed implementation."

According to the Debian Policy Manual, "wrapper packages or other sorts
of free accessories for non-free programs" should be in contrib.

Bug#318353: libglu1-xorg-dev: Should not depend on any C++ libraries

2005-07-15 Thread Keenan Pepper

Subject: libglu1-xorg-dev: Should not depend on any C++ libraries
Followup-For: Bug #318353
Package: libglu1-xorg-dev

libglu1-xorg-dev currently depends on libstdc++6-dev; submitter of this
bug suggested it should depend on libstdc++6-4.0-dev, but IMHO it
should not depend on any C++ libraries because the GLU library can be
used from plain C. It should probably recommend or suggest
libstdc++6-4.0-dev, but not depend on it.
