Comment 4 for bug 68901

This was caused by Rodrigo Parra Novo <email address hidden>, when he explicitely ignored my advice on how to handle the different unichrome forks.

As i'm not close to debian packaging, i'm not sure whether this is so feasible, but Replaces/Conflicts between the different packages should've solved this.

People just get the default via_drv.so installed, if they want to switch to another one, why not just apt-get install that one, and have the default replaced?

My reasoning behind this was that when IDRs pci rework hits, drivers will be loaded automatically, on the basis of PCI-IDs. Having multiple of drivers present for the same devices is not going to be helpful then.

But no. My suggestion got ignored, although, the reply received rodrigo's reply did gloss over that.

Congratulations.
