Well it's not as if direct rendering is working at all in 6.9.0 anyways. So,
eh...


The alternative is trying to build xorg CVS. There is a patch for bug #5443
and if I merged in the xorg CVS drivers for r300 and ivtv then I would be
pretty much in business.

But what would I have to do to merge in CVS code and build debian packages?

I build custom versions of a few other packages that I use but the X packages
certainly are a bridge further.
