Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  Moved to extra. Old driver was broken anyways, so moving it now does not change anything if it is still broken.

Also unichrome driver. Both packages are not well maintained upstream anymore. If we won't find a quick fix I tend to move them to AUR or drop them completely.

As upstream says: "buy a video card" :D

It looks like I am not getting new video card, so I will try to fix sisimedia again (if someone won't finish earlier). Please do not drop it for a while.

Mandriva maintains this:
http://svn.mandriva.com/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/packages/cooker/x11-driver-video-sisimedia/current/SOURCES/

Our current package has nearly all their patches at this moment, so synchronising them looks best to me.

As for unichrome, we should kill it. Nobody maintains it upstream anymore, last commit was over a year ago.

Please test xf86-video-sisimedia in testing. xf86-video-unichrome will not get fixed.
