This is a beta release of X11R6 pl3 by Yggdrasil Computing,
Inc., not by Xfree86, Inc. (so don't bombard them with bug reports or
blame them for our mistakes).  We invite the free software community,
including Xfree86, to build on this code, and to use it in future
releases.  In addition to the standard X11R6 distribution, this
release includes the following TOTALLY UNTESTED features:

		o Mach64 support in XF86_SVGA
		o S3 864 support in XF86_S3.

	We have configured the shared libraries to be drop-in
compatible with X11R5 Xfree86 2.1 in most cases.  The use version
number "3.2" as their shared library version.

	Please send bug fixes to [email-masked].  You can
join this mailing list by sending the message "subscribe x11r6-bugs"
to [email-masked], and the mailing list is archived in
