***** Binary (compiled for 4.1):
***** http://members.aon.at/~twinisch/new_sis_drv.o.tar.gz
------------------------------------
***** (On Debian, sis_drv.o should be placed at
***** /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/)
***** Source (compiles well on CVS 4.1.99 and probably on 4.2):
***** http://members.aon.at/~twinisch/new_sis_drv_src.tar.gz
--------------------------------------
***** XF86Config-4:
***** http://members.aon.at/~twinisch/new_xf86config-4.tar.gz
---------------------------------------
> Please read the XF86Config-4 file as it contains important information
> on how to use the driver in 24 bit depth mode. This time I have tested
> _all_ modes and they all worked on my machines.

> In case you want to use the old code (for some reason), set the option
