Hi, I've patched Xorg so that the Siliconmotion driver doesn't crash anymore. It does need an xorg.conf for that, which you can find on the wiki [1]. I haven't yet found how to create that automatically. I'm not sure if the driver is significantly better than framebuffer, but X not crashing is an improvement.
