Unfortunately this driver has suffered bit-rot upstream since the chip-
set is ancient and not widely used, and support for it in the 12.04 and
14.04 releases is poor to non-existant.
Marking as "Won't Fix" since we haven't found the expertise to fix it in
7 years.
** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => Won't Fix
