All I read is that we don't want it or it's no needed. It must be important enough for some to justify adding this makefile hook. It is important to make sure that, in a few months from now, someone does not show up and say that it is needed for some reasons. Are there any plans to also make the same patch for the libs? There are a few drivers I know that require the maintainers approval for patches: vmmouse vmware ati nv intel geode. <BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE> <PRE> There's also a patch to fix the stuff in xfree86's i2c. _______________________________________________ <A HREF="mailto:xorg-devel@lists.x.org">xorg-devel@lists.x.org</A>: X.Org development Archives: <A HREF="http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel">http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel</A> Info: <A HREF="http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel">http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel</A> </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> </BODY> </HTML>
