Could any xchat-xsys users that are not afraid of using an experimental |
| 2 |
patch unmask version 1.9.3 with /etc/portage/package.unmask and see if |
| 3 |
the /video output gives you the right information. |
| 4 |
If I get 10 reports that it works, I'll unmask it and unleash it on ~x86 |
| 5 |
and ~amd64. |
| 6 |
(Any other arches will most probably miss out on some CPU-related |
| 7 |
information, tell me if at least /video works, and I'll try to get it |
| 8 |
supported fully). |

What the patch does is getting rid of the lspci dependency. Upstream |
| 11 |
reports that it can cause stale processes that will not disappear until |
| 12 |
X-Chat is closed. |

The code in question has been replaced with a sysfs tree-walker that |
| 14 |
should find the AGP video card in any system. If anyone out there has a |
| 15 |
PCI-Express adapter, I'd like to know if this code finds it or not. |
