But as noted by the TSI* package names for the PGX32 driver, the driver
is provided by the OEM (TechSource), not Sun, so it's not ours to give
away. I believe that OEM provides Xorg drivers for other platforms/hardware,
so is capable of providing an Xorg driver should they see the business need.
(Remember PGX32 is the odd man out of the PGX series - all others were
simple ATI Rage devices using the Sun produced m64 drivers, but PGX32
was entirely different hardware and software.)
