2008-09-02 09:44:51 Timo Aaltonen xorg-server: statusexplanation Could you try the xserver-xorg-core from my PPA to see if it works any better. The package is for intrepid. So either add this to your /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/tjaalton/ubuntu intrepid main or manually fetch the package from there.

2008-09-25 21:27:22 Timo Aaltonen xorg-server: statusexplanation back to the original bug; the server should not choose a driver which doesn't support the card. This is fixed now in Debian, and will be merged for 8.10-beta. It's a regression from Hardy, and something that was simply overlooked until now..

It's a regression from Hardy, and something that was simply overlooked until now.. hmm, I didn't change the status of this apparently.. it's just waiting for upload, and should have made it in beta if I would've pushed it hard enough.

2008-10-09 17:58:46 Timo Aaltonen xorg-server: statusexplanation So, hw/xfree86/common/xf86AutoConfig.c still tries to match the driver using videoPtrToDriverName() even though matchDriverFromFiles() has failed. That's a bug.

2008-10-21 08:55:16 Timo Aaltonen xorg-server: statusexplanation I've verified that the patch works like designed (on intel, but anyway): -with no xorg.conf, the videoPtrToDriverList() is used -with a normal xorg.conf with no Driver set, the one that matches the .ids-file is used -with a normal xorg.conf and no pci-id in the driver.ids file, vesa is used so, this should be a safe patch for RC!
