Re: Invoking rootless mode

Uwe,

There is a preliminary Server Test Series - Test 67 release up at:

http://www.msu.edu/~huntharo/xwin/shadow/XWin-Test67.exe.bz2 (~1,225 KB)


I say that this is preliminary because I built it from the HEAD branch, 
rather than from the 4.2.0 branch.  Thus, if you run xdpyinfo it will 
report a strange version number, whereas the usual releases report 4.2.0.

I am only putting this link up for those few brave soles that want to 
minimize logging before I can make an official release.
