XFree86-cvs-4.3.99.11-patches.tar.bz2 needed by xfree-cvs ebuild

[Comment 3 uberto 2003-09-06 08:02:08 UTC]

via driver for mini-itx is broken in 4.3.99.11 (was ok on 4.3.99.10). 
Here there's three patches: http://bugs.xfree86.org/show_bug.cgi?id=525

I tried to add them but they conflicts with via-static patch (no via driver compiled), then I tried to remove via-static but the driver didn't work either.

This is nice work and useful, but I'm not sure whether it's suitable for being in the portage tree, especially considering we provide CVS snapshots during their heavy development periods already.

I talked to a few more people and they all agreed with my position. You might try submitting this to www.breakmygentoo.net if you want to get it somewhere.
