There is some improvement visible regarding openchrome video-diver, particularly, there is no xorg.conf necessary any more in order to make use of the VESA-driver, but obviously X falls back to VESA automatically, which is positive in my opinion, so people will have some workable graphics-output, even if openchrome-video-driver is not workable properly on their hardware, without fiddling with Xorg-configuration. See attached logfile [Xorg.0.log] As far as I can tell, this is the essential part of the log, showing, why openchrome is not workable yet: . . .. > [ 24.359] (II) LoadModule: "openchrome" > [ 24.368] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/openchrome_drv.so > [ 24.390] (EE) Failed to > load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/openchrome_drv.so: > /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/openchrome_drv.so: undefined symbol: > vgaHWFreeHWRec [ 24.393] (II) UnloadModule: "openchrome" > [ 24.393] (II) Unloading openchrome > [ 24.393] (EE) Failed to load module "openchrome" (loader failed, 7) .. . . It would be even nicer, guys, if openchrome worked properly on my hardware instead of falling back to VESA. Now this would really be super-great, get it? > X.Org X server -- VIA display driver > > OpenChrome is a project for the development of free and open-source drivers > for the VIA > UniChrome video chipsets. > > Originally called the 'snapshot' release, since it was a snapshot of an > experimental > branch of the unichrome cvs code, this is a continued development of the open > source > unichrome driver (from http://unichrome.sf.net) which also incorporates > support for the > unichrome-pro chipsets. > > Support for hardware acceleration (XvMC) for all chipsets has subsequently > been ripped > out of the unichrome.sf.net driver.
