: Hi there,
: 
: A team has been formed to write the Matrox driver. Thanks go to
: <a href="mailto:andrew na harlequin.co.uk">Andrew Aitchison</a> for
: getting this effort off the ground.
: 
: Matrox will be giving us the needed documentation and the ability
: to publish the source code freely, so we will be joining the
: XFree86 project.
: 
: Hopefully the driver will eventually join the XFree86 source
: tree in a few weeks to a couple of months. A pre-release driver
: will be announced when it is ready for public consumption.
: 
: The team's web page is:
: 
: http://www.bf.rmit.edu.au/~ajv/xf86-matrox.html
: 
: There will be a mailing list in a few days. An announcement will be
: made as soon as it is going.
: 
: We are still after people who would be interested in doing actual
: coding. You have to like x86 assembly language, don't mind your
: unix box crashing a lot, and can work in an international team of
: co-coders. We are also looking for non-Linux and non-Intel coders
: or testers. We are at the planning stage, and are currently without
: documentation, but we want something to happen really soon.
: 
: Most of the current team are using Linux, but the project is
: Xfree86 compatible, not just Linux compatible. We are are also
: looking at x-platform compatibility. Does anyone use any variant
: of XFree86 on any other CPU besides Intel compatible CPUs (such
: as the DEC Alpha, PowerPC, MIPS, Sparc, etc)? If so, we'd like
: to hear from you if you want to use a Matrox PCI card on your
: system.
: 
: have fun

	Vypada to, ze svet volne siritelneho softwaru ma prece jen
nejakou silu i v komercnim svete -- viz pripad firmy Diamond,
dale v posledni dobe Creative Labs s kartou AWE32 a ted take
Matrox uvolnuje specifikace ke svemu HW.
