Description Larry Rosenman freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2002-04-30 21:20:01 UTC
	
        With some of the newer chip sets BIOS's using extended X86 opcodes
	and addressing modes, the XFree86 4.2.0 x86emu needs enhancement. 

	Steve Woodford <scw@netbsd.org> made the following patch, which 
	fixes this issue.  

        can this be added to the XFree86-4-Server port as a patch to
        xc/extras/x86emu/src/x86emu/decode.c ?

Fix: Apply this patch to xc/extras/x86emu/src/x86emu/decode.c

How-To-Repeat: run on a I830MG graphics system, see the X86 ILLEGAL OPCODE (see the 
-STABLE and -MOBILE lists from yesterday (April 29, 2002) for example
logs.  

This patch fixes THAT problem.

It would be ***REAL*** nice if this could make the 4.6-RELEASE CD's and
Packages.....
