Hi folks,


in case anybody still using sbus-based graphics cards w/ Xorg,
please have a look at whether these MRs are okay:

* https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/1940

   -> removes probing for several sbus cards that we don't have any
      drivers anymore
   -> we (Xorg) never had a driver for MGX (Quantum3D) cards, so there
      probably had been some 3rdparty driver

* https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/1942

   -> unexporting a bunch of symbols that no drivers (known to us)
      are using
   -> but don't know whether there might be some 3rdparty drivers
      that really use some of them


In any case, help on testing of those HW would be highly appreciated.


thx.
