by Apparently something happened to the source tree Zorst used to build
the 1.3 binaries. This led to a bug in the Cirrus driver that causes
the server to crash. Zorst will be looking into this, and checking if
any other problems exist, and will make a new binary update available
when all the problems are resolved. In the meantime, you can work
around the problem as follows:
1) Get the 1.3 Link Kit from the archives.
2) Install the Link Kit
3) cd to /usr/X386/lib/Server/drivers/vga256/cirrus
4) Edit cir_driver.c and add the line
NoopDDA,
between the NoopDDA and cirrusSetRead lines in the definition
of the CIRRUS structure
5) cd to /usr/X386/lib/Server, read the README, and rebuild
the server from the link kit.
Sorry for the hassles.
