I had r827 (1:0.2.904+svn827-1, version currently in squeeze) running on my XO-1.5 for several weeks (or months?). While I had to disable XVideo and hardware cursor support, the basic operations were working more or less fine (there was a slim border on the bottom part of the screen that didn't properly get drawn on). r842 (currently in the git repo) doesn't seem to make any difference. After merging upstream changes up to r858 it works MUCH better. The border is gone and XVideo works. It also feels a lot faster. SWCursor will continue to be required as long as there is no KMS support for VX855 in the kernel [1]; there's nothing openChrome can do about it. Is there any chance of r858 (instead of r842 or r827) making it into Squeeze? I don't have any other UniChrome/Chrome9 based system to test on, so can't tell whether there is any regression for other supported chips.
