Last night something went terribly wrong and I was forced to upgrade to
X7.0 (X 6.8 stopped working for some reason). As the vesa driver is
horribly slow, I decided to go with closed-source stuff until the radeon
driver gets fixed. You can get it here:

I'm sure it'll make it to sid pretty soon, but in case you don't want to
wait....

Cheers,
Carlos
