Bug#318179: i810 driver in xfree86 completly broken

[Mitch Obrian <mikeeusaaa@yahoo.com>]

Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: newest in SID

In the past the i810 driver accelerated OpenGL
programs. As an example nexuiz (fully GPL'd FPS
nexuiz.com) would run at upto 30FPS in simple areas
and 5FPS in more complex areas. Neverball would run
smoothly, as would trackballs and other OpenGL games.

With the update i810 is not accelerated at all, it
runs at 1FPS in simple areas in nexus and 1fps in
Neverball etc.

Please fix this and improve the i810 graphix driver
(the old one should be running better then it was
also).

Also when playing some OpenGL games that worked before
the "upgrade" (HAHAHAHAH BS, it's 30x downgraded) this

error is now encountered: 

X Error of failed request:  GLXBadRenderRequest
  Major opcode of failed request:  145 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  1 (X_GLXRender)
  Serial number of failed request:  12377
  Current serial number in output stream:  12379


It would be nice if opensource video drivers weren't
completly worthless and underpreforming.
