[CS-FSLUG] X.org X11R6.8 Release

[Eduardo Sanchez]

My mouth is already watering thinking of the real transparency, and 
dropshadows...  but compiling it is no trivial undertaking. Building a 
kernel looks like child's play in comparison.

I will feel an expert Linux packager when I can learn how to compile and 
package:

* Wine
* OpenOffice.org
* Mozilla
* X11
* GNOME
* KDE

What a list!

Blessings,


Eduardo
