The codebase is poorly maintained because the people working on the drivers are not spending time testing changes to see if they break old cards. I assume the developers have the latest because (a) they are adding features using the 3D features, and (b) if they were using the 2-3 year old cards they wouldn't be developing anything, because they would be running in text or VESA mode. -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen@xxxxxxx> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
