Good news on this issue: Adrian Bunk has kindly stepped up and is working on re-adding the legacy driver packages to the Debian archive [1]. So users will be able to use X on the affected machines in the near future again. If anyone knows about some particular fixes that are required for the drivers - such as for the eMac - it would be nice if we could assemble a list of these fixes so they can be integrated into the Debian packages later. The fixes should, of course, get upstreamed whereever possible. Thanks, Adrian > [1] https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2021/02/msg00055.html -- .''`.
