I'd like to use my ATI Radeon 9200se in my woody system.
I'm using the "Daniel Stone's XFree86 4.3.0 compiled for woody"
that used to be at:
http://people.debian.org/~mmagallo/packages/xfree86/i386/
but these packages doesn't support the chip id 2964.
According to:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=211528
the package in experimental has been patched and "is working
nicely" with this chipset.
Is there a backport to woody of this patched server ?
I've made a quick attempt to recompile xfree86_4.3.0-0pre1v5
in my woody system, but it rapidly became evident that the
process is not so easy as:
dpkg-source -x xfree86_4.3.0-0pre1v5.dsc
cd xfree86-4.3.0
debian/rules binary
...
Anyway, would it be easier to patch the 4.3.0-0ds2.0.0woody2
version of the server to support this chipset ?
Thanks in advance,
