I need some info on XFree86. Someone told me it was being discussed
here. I checked the back articles for it but all I came up with was
something about floating point exceptions.
This is what I need to know:
1. Which, if any, graphics accelerators does it support? 8514/A?
S3 (any vendor)?
2. Do you need 386BSD to run it, or could you get it to work with Linux?
3. Where do you get it. I tried searching archie for XFree86 but there
were not hits.
