I'm trying to build a set of xfree86 .debs from the CVS archive in order to get my Radeon 7500 to work. I've confirmed it works by just doing a 'make World' against the CVS tree but when I try to integrate it with the latest xfree debian ruleset most of the patches fail to apply (expected) and the source tree no longer compiles (unexpected). I checked Branden's X StrikeForce page and didn't see anything beyond the -pre releases, and haven't had any luck searching for info due to the mass of unrelated pages that google turns up. Normally I'd just trudge through this with trial and error, but when it takes many hours to attempt each compile this stops being a viable method. Can anyone help? Does anyone have a debian/ directory that's ready to accept a CVS tarball and go? Or, does anyone have any hints about how I should best go about this? I tried to subscribe to the debian-x list after going through the archives but I'm not certain that it's taken. I'd appreciate a Cc: in the meanwhile.
