Sources to go with xserver-xfree86-dbg
Hi, I've got a strange problem with my X server. It is crashed by starting certain applications, but not when they are started from a separate terminal. Before submitting a bug, I'd like to get more info on the crash. That's why I installed xserver-xfree86-dbg. My question is about debugging with the X server sources. What is the best way to install the sources to go along with this -dbg package? Thanks in advance. Igor P.S.: Please CC me since I'm not on the list.
