The driver is really great -- I use it on my Compaq Presario 1200
with woody. However, the binary driver is build for the newer
version of XFree86 than what's on woody, therefore I had to
compile it myself. If somebody would be willing to maintain woody
package, it would be really great.
Have a nice day,

As a rule of thumb, the more qualifiers there are before the name
of a country, the more corrupt the rulers. A country called The
Socialist People's Democratic Republic of X is probably the last
place in the world you'd want to live.
