I have a P4M890 graphics adaptor by VIA in my PC. I have found a page with potential drivers here. I attempted to install the second one labelled "P4M890", for obvious reasons. When I tried the provided makedriver script, I got this error:
[root@arch src]# ./makedriver
-------- Check source code --------
cp: cannot create directory `/usr/src/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/':
Could someone possibly have a look at these and see if they are suitable for use under arch current?

yes the problem is its missing xorg source . You have to dl the files extract them to /usr/src and then try again .

So you're saying that is all I have to do? Download the Xorg source with the same version I usually have and extract it into /usr/src?
Offline
There are a lot of Xorg 7.0 source packages and I don't know which ones to get.
Offline
i will try it give me sometime then i will report!

okay this driver is using the old xfree86.org sources! Do you allready tried the xf86-video-via package?

I have that package installed, but it gives me errors about screens not being found when I change the driver in xorg.conf
Offline
hmm sounds bad! the old driver is not working tried it for you with the old source from www.xfree86.org :-/. Maybe put your xorg.conf in here

This is the xorg I am trying to use, with the via driver.
