Re: Bug#726839: xserver-xorg-video-sis depends on old xorg-video-abi-12 under unstable

[Matteo Gamboz <gamboz@medialab.sissa.it>]

Hi all,
 I have a similar problem after an upgrade on a machine such as:

# uname -a
Linux gamboz2 3.11-2-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.11.10-1 (2013-12-04) i686 GNU/Linux


# lspci|grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 661/741/760 PCI/AGP or 662/761Gx PCIE VGA Display Adapter


# modinfo sisfb|grep description
description:    SiS 300/540/630/730/315/55x/65x/661/74x/330/76x/34x, XGI V3XT/V5/V8/Z7 framebuffer device driver



I tried to install version 1:0.10.4-1 forcing dependencies and started
the xserver ignoring ABI, but get a segmentation fault.


Is there any workaround that I may try?

Thank you
