But i do. It does include the linuxthreds in there too. I did have to
reduce the -O3 to -O2 on my glibc sources to make the NPTL work
correctly (like locale -a and MAKEDEV not segfaulting), but other than
that it's all the way NTPL.

I was just mentioning that all of it is not 'working perfectly'.


Another things is (as i don't know what is really working and what is
not) that i did disable the DRI for all radeon. I don't want to get
reports of installations where the X just freezes after firtstboot
finnishes it's job. We can make updates afterwards, but the ISO-images
are there to stay :)

I know for sure that my Radeon 9250/PCI w/ 128MB does hang after
installation with DRI, but that is only adapter i've tested it with
(and even that only on my ES45).
