- integration of the PCI isolation patch from Debian's XOrg.


What does this do ?

It provides two new options, IsolateDevice and SingleCard, both restrict Xorg-X11 to reset other video cards than the one(s) it drives, e.g.:

Option  IsolateDevice "busID"

says it explicitely or

Option SingleCard "on"

says to only reset the first device in the layout.

I think this is a preliminary solution as X should do it by default.
I think it would be best to leave the device reset to driver internals.

I attach it here for reference.

2. Install side-by-side 32 and 64 bit mozilla on x86_64, if the Java and
Flash plugins do not exist in 64 bit version say half time between FC3
test1 and test2. Change default through alternatives.


Does anything actually stop you removing the x86-64 mozilla and installing
the x86-32 one with FC2. I've not tried this but can't see any obvious
reason to fail

I was considering it to do on my FC2 installation but has not had the time yet. But as I watched both 32 and 64 bit Mozillas to render some (very) long pages, the 64 bit version definitely wins, I would keep it if the plugins were available as 64 bit.

There is a question, though: is there any dependency on Mozilla's
libraries? If yes, I then have to "downgrade" those, too. I don't want
to bring half of my system back to 32 bits just to be able to use
the Flash plugin.

Implement IsolateDevice and SingleCard layout options for XF86Config, and
-isolateDevice command-line flag for XFree86 X server.  Useful for
multi-card setups where different X servers run on each card.
