Bug#163885: xserver-xfree86: [dri] r128.o kernel module version is 2.1.6 but version 2.2 or greater is needed.
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: N/A
Severity: important
(Probably higher severity, due to hardware threat, but ... ?)
(Invoked as user, with a plain "startx" command line)
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6600)
Release Date: 3 September 2002
If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is
newer than the above date, look for a newer version before
reporting problems. (See http://www.XFree86.Org/)

The kernel is 2.4.19, so I'm not sure how to get any more recent version
of this kernel module. Did you compile this against a 2.5.X box perhaps?
Hmmm, no, I see "Build Operating System: Linux 2.4.18 i686 [ELF]"
so that's not it. Where did you manage to get something more recent
than what's in the current stable kernel, while running a current-1
kernel version? Odd, at best.
I had hoped 4.2.1-2 would fix this, so held off on filing until trying
that, but it still has the same problem. This problem was not present
in 4.1.0-whatever (sarge) versions and only showed up in 4.2.1-1, to
my awareness.
What further info would you like? What would you like me to test?
