Re: Release-critical Bugreport for May 19, 2000



I am working on xfree86-1 3.3.6-7.

The following fixes are already applied; here are my changelog entries.  I
have two more issues holding me up:

1) SPARC patch update; Ben Collins knows about this (it's a big pain)
2) incredibly aggravating problem with i810 agpgart kernel module; I may
   have to punt on this one and have an unclaimed build-dependency.
   Fortunately this would only affect i386 and I build for that arch myself.
   (H. J. Lu recently flamed the XFree86 developers about this so hopefully
   they will work something out and this will get fixed one day.)
