Also rejected.  Alex's assertion no longer holds now that all the major
Itanium chipsets are properly supported.

Besides, ATIAvoidCPIO (and ATIAvoidNonPCI) are merely stopgaps which I

You seem to be "submitting" a string of old patches, some of them twice.

The proper patch submission mechanism is patch@, or bugs.xfree86.org.
