As per comment #9 (which Martin-Eric and I have discussed separately), the patch to xserver that this sru was originally filed for is not necessary. Like it was said in #9, Debian uses an entirely different mechanism for detecting pci ids, so patching support into the xserver is unnecessary, and this AFAWK the 2:1.4.1~git20080131-1ubuntu9.1 changeset can be dropped as an SRU candidate. The change is not incorrect, it's just probably harmlessly irrelevant; if we find otherwise we may re-introduce the patch, but if so it should first be verified in Intrepid as actually needed.

I would recommend that new SRU's be opened each for the -geode and -nsc updates. It sounds from pitti's review like the patches need further baking and positive verification in Intrepid before bringing to the SRU team. Once those bugs are opened, this SRU can be closed as invalid.
