Please sync xserver-xorg-video-geode 2.9.0-3 (main) from Debian unstable (main).

NOTE: Hardy-proposed has a 2.9.0-1-ubuntu2.1 which doesn't accomplish
the goals set for Debian 2.9.0-2, namely to move symbolic links to the
transitional -amd package, which also requires editing -all to depend
upon -geode rather than -amd. Until that has been done, LTSP remains
broken for all Geode GX2/LX products, which pretty much means the vast
majority of thin client hardware out there still don't work on Hardy.

Changelog since current hardy version 2.8.0-7:

xserver-xorg-video-geode (2.9.0-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Removed the GX model's PCI ID from geode.ids to fix LTSP usage case.

    NOTE: GX is currently covered by two drivers, due to the "nsc" driver
    including backported GX support, which produces PCI ID conflicts with
    "geode". "geode" has more up-to-date GX support and cleaner code than
    "nsc" but conflicts with the existing Debian "nsc" package, hence the
    decision to disable GX support in this package, until further notice.

xserver-xorg-video-geode (2.9.0-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Moved backward-compatibility symbolic links to AMD package.
  * Added a versioned Conflicts/Replaces against << 2.9.0-2 to match.
  * Added usr/share/xserver-xorg/pci/geode.ids Debian PCI ID list.

xserver-xorg-video-geode (2.9.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    Changes from 2.8.0+git20080424 released as 2.9.0 by upstream.

xserver-xorg-video-geode (2.8.0+git20080424-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Merged upstream GIT commit 61663593475f61567466c105ca19d5009a4e9c41:

    "Teach libDDC to access the DDC pins on the Geode natively, instead
    of using the BIOS which has proven to be broken time and time again."

    This libDDC support makes DDC polling succeed on any Geode GX/LX
    hardware, regardless of how buggy the BIOS implementation is. If
    DDC still fails on your hardware, it means that the DDC pins are
    not physically connected to the VGA port. BADMANUFACTURER error!

  * Ran autogen.sh to regenerate the autotool files.

While Debian's 2.9.0-3 works for Intrepid, fixing Hardy instead requires the 2.9.0-3ubuntu2 from my PPA.

[Daniel Holbach (dholbach)]

Bryce: can you please take a look at it?

[Bryce Harrington (bryce)]

I uploaded Martin-Eric's -geode 2.9.0-4ubuntu3 to intrepid yesterday, so I think this sync request is out of date. We also already have a bug report open for the SRU task for -geode.
