Package: xserver-xorg-video-mga Version: 1:1.2.1.3.dfsg.1-1 Severity: normal
For kernels 2.6.15 and below the following option is needed to /etc/X11/xorg.conf in order to enable direct rendering for AGP cards: Option "OldDmaInit" "True" For kernels 2.6.16 and later this is not needed. It it possible to add a ChangeLog note when upgrading or a hook when configuring this package or using dexconf in the x11-common package to inform users to add this option if the have too old kernels? The above has been tested on linux-image-2.6.15-8-smp and earlier kernels and linux-2.5.16-rc5-686-smp.
