I don't know how much longer xorg-server 1.12 is going to stay in the tree but the good news is that git master of the xf86-video-trident driver works with 1.17 out of the box with no patches and no configuration. Performance isn't great but that's to be expected, especially now that XAA has gone. At least XVideo works relatively well. There's probably no one else left with this hardware but my laptop/tablet hybrid is unusual/useful enough to keep around and I also use it for x86 testing. Anyone else interested in my adding a snapshot to the tree? It's debatable whether the old versions should even stick around if they don't work with anything but 1.12.

I'll just do an actual release. Released 1.3.7 and added it to gentoo, straight to stable. Looks like xorg-1.16.4 is still using XAA, but it's working for me, too...
