This driver supports a video chipset used only on MIPS hardware.
x/xf86-video-nouveau-blacklist-noarch-1.txz: Added.
This is NOT the nouveau driver! It installs a file in /etc/modprobe.d/
to prevent the kernel module from autoloading. We don’t want the nouveau
loaded since we do not ship the nouveau driver (yet), and having the
module loaded prevents the nv and binary nVidia drivers from working.
x/xf86-video-xgixp-1.7.99.4-i486-1.txz: Removed.
This driver breaks X -configure and running X.Org without a config file.

If anyone actually uses this driver, please let us know.
