Bug#413492: xserver-xorg-video-all: amd64 can have xserver-xorg-video-vmware
Package: xserver-xorg-video-all
Severity: normal
Version: 7.1.0-13
Hi,
I noticed GDM failed to boot when I installed Debian Etch on
VMware 64 bit environment.
Because xserver-xorg-video-all hasn't the dependency against
xserver-xorg-video-vmware, xorg wrote "apm" as driver instead
of "vmware".
GDM was running after I installed xserver-xorg-video-vmware and
replaced driver name of xorg.conf with "vmware".
So I believe xserver-xorg-video-vmware can become a member of
xserver-xorg-video-all on amd64 as same as i386.
It's very helpful for users to implement this on Etch if it's
acceptable for RMs at this time.
Thanks,
