The simplest way to avoid upgrading to hamm is to keep the XFree86
installation that comes with bo and but use the XF86_SVGA server
from
ftp://ftp.suse.com/suse_update/XFree86-3.3.1-SuSE/tgz/xsvga.tgz
Install the Debian package with the SVGA server and then
untar xsvga.tgz in /
When running xf86config
- select XF86_SVGA as server (no need to look at card database chose
'3' at the server selection).
- select "TI 3026" as ramdac
- select "TI 3026" as clockchip
Hope this information will be of any use
