drivers/video/sis horribly broken in 2.5.51
Linux 2.5.51 appears to have horribly broken the files in drivers/video/sis. linux-2.5.51/drivers/video/sis/sis_main.c refers to #include <video/fbcon.h>, <video/fbcon-cfb8.h>, <video/fbcon-cfb16.h>, <video/fbcon-cfb24.h>, <video/fbcon-cfb32.h> which appears to have been removed from the tree. And who knows what other havoc has been created :-(
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks, Willem Riede.

The author is working on updating the driver. I talked it him some time ago and he wanted to wait until the merge happened. In fact alot of driver maintainers wanted to wait until the merged. So you will started to see several broken drivers start to work.
