6. Acknowledgments

Jerry J. Shekhel (jerry@msi.com) gave me (GGL) the 1-M Mirage ET4000/W32 VLB board on which the initial development (X_W32) was done.

X11R6 and The XFree86 Project provide the base code for XF86_W32.

Hercules Computer Technology Inc. lent me (GGL) a 2-M Hercules Dynamite Pro VLB board for the development that led to XF86_W32. They donated a Dynamite Power PCI to The XFree86 Project, that was used by DHH to extend the server.

Koen Gadeyne (koen.gadeyne@barco.com) wrote a patchkit for XFree86-3.1.1 that was partly integrated in this server and he continues to help develop it.

Tseng Labs Europe kindly donated (KMG) an ET6000-based board (a Jazz Multimedia G-Force 128), which spurred the development of the ET6000 code.

Numerous testers have given me feedback for X_W32 and later XF86_W32. I apologize for my failure to keep track of the people who tested X_W32, but the names of the people involved with the XF86_W32 testing are listed below:
