1 This note is generated by evolution running under X-modular current on
2 SB1000(2x900), so we are making progress.
3 NOTE: This is an Elite(afb)-framebuffer system. Currently, to run
4 X-modular at all on such a system, you must apply the changes at
5 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4890 to xf86-video-sunffb
6 as you build it. Otherwise, you will miss some externals, and sunffb
7 will die when you do something like, say, start an xterm.

9 Easiest is to do an 'ebuild <package> unpack', go to the work directory,
10 make the two little changes, run the aclocal stuff, then pick up with
11 the rest of the ebuild sequence as noted on the bug. (At least, that
12 worked for me.)

14 Feedback, comments, problems, and so on requested,
15 Regards,
