readme
This is a merge of the 'premium' sis driver updated to build on X server 1.12.
Should work on Debian Lenny/Squeeze/Wheezy. Should work on D201GLY2 for which the X org SiS driver which is loaded by default causes picture artifacts - probably from bad timing somewhere.
Need to specify virtual in xorg.conf. Need to set acceleration to XAA when it defaults to EXA. Need to select driver manually - it is not autodetected.
problems
- EXA crashes (probably works with X org sis driver)
- DDC does not work properly - virtual is not inferred and has to be set in config
- compared to vesa this driver appears to render slow - may need some benchmarking to confirm
- most post-pciaccess patches are not included
- driver is not autodetected - needs to be specified in xorg.conf
