Description Stefan Dirsch 2005-03-09 07:38:32 UTC

Since updating to X.Org 6.8.2 I see these warning/errors in the Xserver 
logfile:

Skipping "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/libfb.a:fbmmx.o":  No symbols found

Looking at the sources it seems that these symbols are only included when
USE_MMX is set (obviously it was not set in my build).

So can these warnings/errors be ignored and is this only a bug in Imakefile so
these files should not have been included by libGLcore.a when USE_MMX is not set?
