Re: Intel740 graphic accelerator
Your timing couldn't be better!
RedHat has been working in a couple of partnerships to turn out some
binary-only servers for XFree (the XBF project.)
They just yesterday announced a new beta release of their i740 driver
(the first beta had been tested with only 1 mfrs card.)
This is at:
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/XBF/XBF-i740-glibc-0.9.8-1.i386.rpm
FYI: This is a beta, and I haven't tried this myself. It's packaged
as .RPM, I guess you can use alien to repackage as a .deb, although
making a .tgz and manually installing might be the proper route, if
you are comfortable with this.
For those with a tight, free-software-kink (and running Debian, who
doesn't?): There is hope that source will ultimately be released to
XFree86, as was the case with the RedHat/XBF NeoMagic drivers.
Cheers,
Jeremiah
