Ah, that's good news.  Last time I tried, the GATOS DRI required a version
of DRM older than those shipped by the kernel and X, so that their version
was indeed required.

I'll check that and surely close the ITP then :)

No, I'll look at that.  You mean DRM from DRI or from GATOS ?

Sure that would be easier for everyone.  But there's more than just DRI in
their tree, and last time I checked, it looked like they had 2 branches: one
with tv-in working, and one with tv-out working...

Unfortunately "apt-cache search ddk" and other guesses do not help me much.
In which package will I find it ?
