Very nasty but I got X working with the via driver by dummying up libddmpeg
(which is supplied along with via_drv.o on the VIA EPIA M 9000 CD).
Basically I linked libddmpeg.a with a dummy program to pull in the required
symbols and generated a new .so which does not link against libc.so.6.
With the dummied up libdmpeg.so in place the VIA-supplied driver works. It
complains a bit, but it works.

I'll keep the page up unless VIA complains to me. I don't know why they would,
though.
