BTW, Is there a way to have theses PCI ID mapped to another drivers
without having the whole Xorg-server recompiled ?
For example, if I want to fork nouveau for some reason, to be renamed
new173xx or whatever,
Is there a way to map some selected PCI ID to this driver without
changing xf86AutoConfig.c at compile time ?
