Package: src:linux
Version: 6.1.0-7-powerpc64

Please add support in future Debian powerpc64 kernels for
the NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 graphics card for PowerMac G5.

The applicable option appears to be CONFIG_FB_RIVA=y or
CONFIG_FB_RIVA=m.

Adding ONFIG_FB_RIVA will allow testing of default Debian
kernels in some PowerMac G5 systems.
