Oh, I just see that on my desktop machine xorg-server already got re- compiled without fglrx. I see no adverse effects yet, but then OpenGL never worked really well here. > Q2. Does anyone know why midi USE flag is no longer used? There is http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=272659 , although it does not really explain why midi is being dropped from ALSA. Wonko
