Hi Xavier,

Okay, then http://www.openchrome.org is gone for good.
Since the current device driver code and the freedesktop.org OpenChrome page you updated now do not reference http://www.openchrome.org, I think this issue is now resolved.
Sorry to be picky about OpenChrome installation page, but if you can remove some dead links, it will be better.

http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Openchrome/Installation/

Thank you very much for doing the maintenance work.

Regards,

Kevin Brace
