Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-s3
Over a year ago, this bug was reported, and someone posted a patch about 4 months ago. However, this bug has been erased from Malone's database, and the fix was NOT included in the current Feisty package. So that's why I'm re-submitting this bug report with a fix. I fixed it on my own computer by grabbing Debian's source packages from http://packages.debian.org/testing/source/xserver-xorg-video-s3 Then, I modified the control file so it would not arbitrarily depend on Debian's version numbering scheme, and I built a working package using their source tree and my modified control file. I hope by building a working package for Edgy and Feisty and providing my modified control file, that this can be included in Feisty and future Ubuntu releases, as I like being able to use my Pentium II system to its full potential with the latest software. I am using the package I just built and verified that it is indeed a working bugfix. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-s3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Broken legacy S3 xorg driver in feisty (Fix included) https://launchpad.net/bugs/87973 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
