Updated Packages:

XFree86-4.3.0-61
----------------
* Fri Feb 27 2004 Mike A. Harris <mharris(a)redhat.com&gt; 4.3.0-61

- Added XFree86-4.3.0-keyboard-disable-ioport-access-v3.patch as a final patch
  without debug logging enabled, to fix (#115769)
- Added spec file macro 'with_savetemps' for debugging purposes, disabling it
  by default.  When used, it is set up to only get used on x86 for
  build_rawhide and build_psyche builds
- Added XFree86-4.3.0-ati-ia64-no-nonpci-ioport-access.patch to fix ati driver
  issue on ia64 which causes IBM x455 system to machine check.  Also added
  "#define ATIAvoidNonPCI YES" to host.def to activate this fix only on ia64
  builds (#112175)

* Wed Feb 25 2004 Mike A. Harris <mharris(a)redhat.com&gt; 4.3.0-60

- Added XFree86-4.3.0-keyboard-disable-ioport-access-v2.patch to try to
  fix (#115769)
- Changed mkxauth to call chown as foo:bar instead of foo.bar as the latter
  syntax has been deprecated
- Added XFree86-4.3.0-minor-typo.patch to fix a trivial typo that I spotted
  in an error message in linux int10 code.
- Remove Buildrequires kudzu-devel, pciutils-devel, both of which were added
  on Mar 21, 2001 when Glide3 was included in the XFree86 packaging, but are
  no longer necessary.  I detected this when the buildsystem failed my build
  due to being unable to meet the dependancy on kudzu-devel, and further
  investigation showed that dependancy is no longer necessary.
- Added XFree86-4.3.0-xcursorgen-check-malloc-return.patch to make xcursorgen
  check the return codes on malloc before referencing allocated memory
- Added XFree86-4.3.0-redhat-xcursorgen-do-not-build-included-cursors.patch to
  stop building the XFree86 supplied Xcursor cursors as we do not ship them

* Thu Feb 19 2004 Mike A. Harris <mharris(a)redhat.com&gt; 4.3.0-59

- Added XFree86-4.3.0-xrandr-manpage-typo-fix.patch to fix manpage (#83702)
- Added XFree86-4.3.0-radeon-9200-dvi-snow.patch to fix issue on Radeon 9200
  when using DVI panel and encountering snow and other artifacts (#112073)
- Updated XFree86-4.3.0-debug-logging-ioport-based-rate-setting.patch to have
  it patch both lnx_kbd.c and lnx_io.c because both files insanely contain
  identical cut and pasted copies of the exact same source code, so nothing
  shows up in the X server log when testing with previous patch as the calls
  never got invoked in lnx_kbd.c (#115769)

It really works! was Re: rawhide report: 20040228 changes

[Ronny Buchmann]

Installation with pxelinux went smoothly and also my Radeon9200 with DVI-out 
works out-of-the-box.

This is great.

I didn't see any really serious problems yet, has test2 really to be delayed 
so long?

The most notable problems were misplaced KDE .desktop entries and non-working 
consolehelper (due to selinux)

Test2 is not being delayed due to general problems, it is being 
delayed specifically because of SElinux not being quite ready 
yet, and it is absolutely mission critical that SElinux is in a 
useable state in test2, or else people will just disable it 
entirely, and it will get zero testing.  There's no sense putting 
out test releases, if one of the major new features will just be 
disabled because it doesn't work properly yet.

Wow, that was quite a run-on sentence there.  I should like win 
an award or something eh.   ;o)
