I lost hardware rendering with my Matrox G400 (AGP) video card when I upgraded to Jessie.
The old version of the MGA driver was
1.5.0-3. This works with hardware rendering.
The new version is
1.6.3-2. I can only get VESA with this.
Obviously hardware rendering was lost somewhere between 1.5.0 and 1.6.3.
How would I go about downgrading this package?
I tried this:
1. Downloaded the 1.5.0-3 i386 package.
2.
apt-get --purge remove xserver-xorg-video-mga
3.
dpkg -i <the 1.5.0-3 package>.deb
But it says it's the wrong ABI version when I try to start x. Indeed,
dpkg -i complained about unmet dependencies, and 1.5.0-3 depends on xorg-video-abi-12 while 1.6.3-2 depends on xorg-video-abi-18.
I tried doing the same thing on Slackware a while ago but with the same result.
Am I screwed?
Thanks in advance.
[EDIT]
Oh, I nearly forgot the Xorg.0.logs!
