Bug#400181: Silicon Motion chip on amd64
Hi Alex, I'm the reporter of the bug about the misbehaviour of the silicon driver with the Silicon Motion chip on amd64 architecture. I take the liberty to contact you directly.. Did you have a chance to work on the issue? I'm still using the quick dirty patch you provided me a while ago, and as it works well for me I've tried to propose its inclusion in the Debian package for the silicon X driver: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=400181 However, as that patch cleary not an optimal solutio, the Debian maintainer of the package does't feel like including it. As we are now approaching to the next Debian release (called Etch), it will be great if you could provide a better patch, so that it can be included in time. Thanks!

I'll try and put something AD together this week and do a siliconmotion driver release. thanks for your fast reply. If you can make it for this week, it's wonderful! however the release process of the next Debian is a bit late, so I think we have still some weeks. Ciao!

Silicon Motion chip on amd64 [part 2]
a few days ago I've posted here this message http://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2006/09/msg01286.html but got no reply. So, I've tried to contact debian-amd64, and I was suggested to remove the NVIDIA card and possibly contact again this list with further details: http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2006/10/msg00015.html I've tried to follow the hint which has been given meon the debian-amd64 list, but it didn't work, see my reply here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2006/10/msg00020.html Any hint?

Silicon Motion chip on amd64
Hi all, I can't get xorg working with the Silicon Motion, Inc. SM720 Lynx3DM (rev c1), ID 126f:072, VGA controller on a etch/amd64 system. Note that the same hardware works fine with etch/i386. Here is the output of lscpi, the xorg.conf, and Xorg.0.log: http://people.64studio.com/~free/xorg.conf http://people.64studio.com/~free/lspci.output http://people.64studio.com/~free/Xorg.0.log I've tried both with xserver-xorg 7.0 and 7.1 any hint?
