The ABI changed, but the ubuntu package does not correctly update the
Provides:  when the ABI is bumped.

At the moment there are no .deb's, but you can build yours with:

$ apt-get install git-core git-buildpackage
$ git clone
git://git.debian.org/git/pkg-xorg/driver/xserver-xorg-video-openchrome.git
openchrome
$ cd openchrome &&
git-buildpackage --git-upstream-branch=upstream-unstable --git-debian-branch=debian-unstable --git-no-create-orig
&& debclean

Then just install the built binary package.
