I was looking into the sources. 7 weeks ago Ian Romanick isolated and rewrote the BIOS handling code in mga driver. So I think that given that the patch and fix from this weekend went against the new code, the only suitable solution would be to backport the whole driver to 6.8.2 or compile the 6.9 tree including this patch. > does Xorg build on a 3GHz P4?) A lot (several hours). But CPU power is cheap. You can wait a little, because David Nusinow is packing 6.9 for Debian in parallel, so I do not think that X.Org 6.9 will delay a lot in Debian.
