XFree86: New via driver with DRI

[Mike A. Harris]

I have updated the "via" video driver in XFree86-4.3.0-56 in 
rawhide with Alan Cox's latest driver.  The new driver has DRI 
support however a typo in the spec file caused the DRI driver not 
to get built in 4.3.0-56, so only the new 2D driver is present in 
this build.

The next build which fixes the typo, 4.3.0-57 is currently being 
built, and should contain the via DRI 3D driver unless something 
else goes wrong.  ;o)

I'm going to sleep so wont be babysitting the build, nor 
doublechecking the packages for sanity before tomorrow sometime.  
Welcome to RAWhide.  ;o)

Please test the new XFree86 build out on via hardware, and report 
any problems in bugzilla.  DRI support requires that you be 
running the latest Fedora development kernel.  I don't know if 
the Fedora Core 1 or RHL 9 kernels have the via DRM module in 
them or not.  If not - nag davej.  ;o)
