4.1 only for sis_drv.o. I downloaded the module using some pointer from the list. Unfortunately, I have not the 4.1 source tree. And I would have some difficulties in getting it. I'll see what can I do. Would it be ok if I get only the 4.1 sis/ directory? >There have been several other changes to the SiS driver between 4.1 >and your CVS version.

Note that I use the same sis_dri.so (from current CVS) and it works in the 4.1 sis_drv.o case and not in the CVS one. >As I don't have any test system you'll have to do some debugging >yourself.
