Looks like it was never in the archive. There's an upstream incompatibility between the 6.6.x releases (intended for xorg-server 1.1 from X.Org 7.1) and the version of EXA in xorg-server 1.0, so EXA was probably disabled at build time. It should be enabled in the versions of xserver-xorg-video-ati currently in testing, sid and experimental though. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://tungstengraphics.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer
