Hello
I have been trying to compile the old driver, modified over and over on
12.10. I succeeded to compile it, but the modifications were too many,
and the driver does not work properly. Why are we in need of so many
modifications? xorg 1.3.0 widthdrawed XAA acceleration, just EXA is
supported, a
rectification, X version is 1.13.0

I coudn't get the proper results and some people complained that they
