Uh, you didn't look inside... ;-}
I did, hoping that the patches *were* there, but unfortunately, it's
just the server binary and XF86Config file in each... :-\

I managed to get this binary (which is probably the best xserver that I can get for this laptop) on my laptop but as I expected it doesn't work with the 3.3.6 binary install, I hope to find some 3.3.1 binaries (for debian-alpha, maybe someone has a link - haven't found any debs yet) and if i cant find them I will try to use the 3.3.6 source (split the tarballs and use floppy's to put it on the laptop - not something I look forward to :P)
