Greetings all,

I am having a similar problem updating my amd64 laptop (HP Pavilion
zv600 series (zv6201cl) with the ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955 (PCIE)
video chip on-board.

I updated unstable from ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ using dselect. So now
I am in "dselect hell" because "xserver-xorg-video-glint does not appear
to be available".

I will be trying again tomorrow. I sure hope things get ironed out. fgd.
