We have provided a binary build of the i810 video driver (modesetting
branch) in Debian, taking a 20061014 snapshot and building for xserver
1.1 (X11R7.1).

It is currently available [1] in debian/experimental for i386 only. If
there is demand we can move it to debian/unstable instead, from where it
will get built for all the other machine architectures supported by
Debian.

Alan, do you have strong feelings for or against including this driver
in Debian's forthcoming stable release, etch?  We are in any case
providing the normal i810 1.7.2 driver as well, of course.
