Now, we need to leverage some upstream work +for input rotation that is landing on the Xorg tree right now. + +Backporting is not an option, and we want to stay up to date +anyway. We'll soon be moving to Fedora 7 anyway. But even +the just-released 1.3 that will be in Fedora 7 is not enough, +because it has been branched some time ago, we must work +from the tip of the git tree, which of course has become +very unstable recently. + +I've been fighting all the week against all sort of bugs +and build problems and, believe me, it's a very energy +consuming exercise. + +The funniest thing I'm still trying to track are +these GreenishBitmaps that nobody else except me +is seeing. + +It's probably a miscompilation of some kind, but I've +long ago ran out of obvious and less obvious ideas to try +and I'm now far in the land of impossible things. + +All this time I've been in contact with a few X +hackers on IRC, including the author of the AMD +driver, but even them couldn't come up with a +magical solution. + + +==== Chat Line ==== + Bernie, I'm Easy... -'''Bernie''': Hello Easy!!!
