> Could you create a new upstream release for savage so I can pull this to saucy?
Maarten, I will also try to sort out some other issues before I make a new upstream release. Distros can make git snapshots at any point. I would like you to commit these patches to Saucy because I want to have them SRU'ed. I can imagine that SRU'ing a new version is almost impossible, for bureaucratic reason (I mean, never mind that the current driver is pretty much useless). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1083032 Title: Video driver not working for Savage chipset Status in X.Org X server: Fix Released Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “xserver-xorg-video-savage” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “xorg-server” source package in Raring: New Status in “xserver-xorg-video-savage” source package in Raring: New Bug description: When installing 12.10 on our Thinkpad T22 laptops the display does not work. 12.04 works fine. xserver-xorg-video-s3 is version 1:0.6.5-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-savage is version 1:2.3.6-0ubuntu1 I don't know if these are the packages involved but they are the ones that I suspect may be involved.
