For now, you can download just the server itself. Not much else has
changed. What I did:
1. Download X332SVGA.tgz from the appropriate directory.
2. Stop xdm (`/etc/init.d/xdm stop').
3. Move the Debian version aside safely:
# dpkg-divert --rename /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA
4. Untar the downloaded server and put it in /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA.
5. Restart xdm.
I did this to fix an annoying bug with disabled menus and buttons in
XEmacs and xv, with the S3 ViRGE in 16bpp mode.
