I looked at my driver's  symbol list
nm via_drv.so
and the vgahwgetindex thingy is indeed there, but I'm not sure how it 
ends up there in the first place.

Hmm. XAACopyROP should only get included if -DX_HAVE_XAAGETROP is not 
present during compilation. Indeed it is not in my symbol's list so 
something appears strange with your compilation?

Could you do a
nm via_drv.so | grep -i xaacopyrop
to see if the symbol is in there,

and check that the above -DX_HAVE_XAAGETROP appears in the compilation 
commands for the via files.
