Maybe it strikes you hard, I understand that, but don't forget that all work in debian is done for free, every one do what he think is necessary. Also note please that nor the nv driver or the nouveau driver are developed by debian, they are part of Xorg/Xf86, so also your conclusion over the egos of the debian "workers" is wrong. Again, if you wish to see this package back in debian, offer your work for free and just do it. or, try to find someone how do it for you. Or select a distribution, witch offer this package to you. A un-maintained package can't be a part of the distribution. It makes no mater if it is the only working solution (for you), or not. greets hermann _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
