He gave you links to 1.16.99.1_3 and 1.16.99.901_0 to test.
Yes. What is the procedure or algorithm then to perform tests? Is it, as I imagined, to leave away this or that or another patch file from the build process or is it something different? Because I already built, installed, and used these packages. And they both were not working correctly. So it's obviously not proper to built them as they are. A second, or third, or fourth time. Something has to be modified, has to be performed differently. What? Or how?
Another possibility that comes to my mind is to use modified patch files, freed off the patches applied to them when they were upgraded.
No, it's not at all likely to be one of the patches given that the set of patches didn't change between the versions that introduced the problem.
Please install 1.16.99.1_3 and tell me if it has the problem you are seeing. Then install 1.16.99.901_0 and tell me if it has the problem you are seeing.
Actually, I have to apologize to Peter. I had thought your links went to ready-made builds, but they don't. So, the question is how do you expect him to install those versions. Are you suggesting, using MacPorts and doing: sudo port install xorg-server-devel @1.16.99.1_3 ? Regards, Ken
