Sparc patches that I've seen go upstream lately came mostly from davem.

Feel free to provide a patch, or revert the kernel changes that broke X.
The X guys are not sparc porters, don't have access to sparc hardware,
and the affected code is very much arch-specific.

Oh, and we already have one in 488669, but it's filed against the core
X server package. I'll leave it to the X guys to decide where to merge.
In any case it's a clear regression from etch. :(

Unfortunately that won't help either, because apparently lenny only
has 1.4.2. 1.5.x is still in experimental. I've just happened to file
an RC bug on xserver-xorg-video-mach64 because of this, Cc:ed now.

Possibly.  I guess I'll have to wait for Lenny to be released before
upgrading the kernel.

The current Xorg and ATI driver appear to not work when used with
