XAA driver for SGI Indy/Indigo2 with XL (newport) graphics none

Description Stephen P. Becker 2005-01-22 11:22:48 UTC 
This patch is a complete re-write of the old driver, using XAA for acceleration.
 It is much faster and very much improved over the old driver.  It should apply
to all versions of xorg with no problem.
