Wow, I did not expect that.
I can understand the need to clean up things, but at the same time it is
sad to see how support is gradually lost for old machines.
I am sincerely grateful for the work people is doing to bring support
back to those old beautiful machines.
Thank you
Regards

Tried everything to get X working (needed working for LXDE), including a new

Another developer (who works on VoidPPC) said r128 needs patched to even work….
I don’t even know what he did to get it working over there.
I suggest asking him what he did and then - if it's a patch that's necessary -
we can include it in the xorg package for the r128 driver.
The r128 driver package was removed from Debian unstable [1, 2]. I can try to
build one tomorrow - if it actually still builds - and provide it to you.
Not sure whether the driver is still maintained upstream.
