Thanks, but could you please use the developer's mailinglist to post patches in the future? Here they might be missed.

Sure. Does it allow non-subscriber posting? I also submitted some more patches yesterday (#4732, #4733, #4734), so I'm wondering if you noticed them, or I should re-post them to the list (since you suggest that there's a chance they'll be overlooked here)?

We saw the other reports, thank you! To submit patches to the vbox-dev mailing list you have to subscribe indeed (SPAM protection).

Summary: [PATCH] Adjust for newer Video Driver API[PATCH] Adjust for newer Video Driver API -> applied in SVN

Patch applied, it should be visible in the OSE repository by tomorrow. I actually removed the calls to the symbol reference functions altogether, as they have been (I discovered) no-ops in the X server code since at least server version 1.3, possibly longer. I'd also like to mention that the patches are really appreciated. It's nice when people packaging send their changes back upstream!
