Right now, I build X w/ the following patches (For FBDev):
XFree86-3.3.3.1-fbdev_dc.patch (DC hack to fbdev/fbdev.c, colormap fix)
XFree86-3.3.3.1-fbdev_dga.patch (Enable some DGA extentions, xawtv works)
XFree86-3.3.5-fbdev_15.patch: This does a few things good and bad.  The
depth line in XF86Config should now be the values of red, green and blue
that the fb uses.  ie "Depth 16" is now 16 or 15, depending on what the
values add up to, and "Depth 32" should always be 24  (8+8+8).  Kevin
Hendricks is responsible for this one and can explain better.
XFree86-3.3.5-fbdev_machutil.patch: I posted this one a while back, this
adds in LinkSourceFile(mach64util.h...) to the mach64 dir, and #ifndef
powerpc's regw/etc in mach64util.h

I think those are the only patches which would have any effect on accel
stuff (which in the RPMs is not perfect, I've gotten a small glitch report
on ati+blackbox).
