Can I get a copy of this?  I have a machine begging for something better
than 320x200. :)  I attempted to build this myself but my utter lack of
experience with building X didn't help -- the neomagic make exploded
missing some header files.  I think I have the source and the link kit
confused though.

Please contribute this back to the author of the above page, just so
everything's in one place.
