[Openchrome-users] Issues with VN800

[joe junior]

after unistalling xorg-server and installing (again) Xorg 7.2, glx is no 
longer hard chrashing, even with AIGLX turned on, I couldn't compile mesa 
6.5.3, I got a "nouveau_drm.h: no such file  directory" error!
And the problem of the scrambled screen after closing X persists!
I'm resending my Xorg.0.log!
I've noticed something in lspci that might help, seems like it is not 
recognizing my graphic card (last line):
