Dear Debian X Strike Force, please reenable the PCI_TXT_IDS_DIR feature of Xorg. Even if it is not used by Xorg itself, it would simplify automatic configuration of third party drivers (the non-free nvidia driver in this case). Xorg does not (and needs not to) know details about the existence of these drivers as long as finding a matching PCI ID redirects it to the correct driver, Currently an xorg.conf has to be created by the user because autoconfiguration does not use the proprietary driver. Or is there another solution to plug some driver into Xorg without creating an xorg.conf? Thanks.
