Err... almost. It works. Only not using the openchrome module. Preiously
the openchrome module probably failed the whole load and had to be moved
aside. Now it merely fails to load but I can use vesa or whatever as a
fallback.

Without any extra config:

  [  1618.153] (EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/openchrome_drv.so: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/openchrome_drv.so: undefined symbol: vgaHWFreeHWRec

vgaHWFreeHWRec indeed comes from vgahw. So add it. Now I get:

[  1747.417] (EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/openchrome_drv.so: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/openchrome_drv.so: undefined symbol: shadowRemove

Grepping further, I see shadowRemove comes from libshadow.so. So I try
adding it. Now I get:

[  1830.755] (EE) LoadModule: Module libshadow does not have a
libshadowModuleData data object.
[  1830.756] (II) UnloadModule: "libshadow"

 ...

[  1830.768] (EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/openchrome_drv.so: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/openchrome_drv.so: undefined symbol: shadowRemove

Anyone else have this issue of the openchrome driver not loading at all?
Is this a packaging issue?
