Hi Nadav,

first: a subject would be nice ;)

that problem is known for a long time now and has been often discussed but
never got a fix into mainstream. Use this.

The patch does 2 simple things.

1. If you select SiS DRI statically it selects SiS Framebuffer also statically
2. Same as above for module.
