Re: [GATOS]8500 AIW and DRI

I had the same problem.  Mine's still broken, but I post-replaced the
redhat libGL.so.1.2 with the one in XFree86.org's distribution for
glibc2.3, at least some applications will start working again (including
glxgears).  Must still be some version conflict as some (not all) of the
xscreensaver apps segfault, and some working ones can be broken by adding
-fps.  however ...

Anyone got that full system crash bug fixed?  that one if you are using
DRI and change video modes?  I just tried -12 and it still crashes on
video mode change...  I haven't tried the DRI project latest CVS kernel
module yet...
