I don't see that in the xorg-x11-drv-cirrus package

Comment 2 Mike A. Harris 2005-12-01 10:11:51 UTC
Due to an X.Org oversight, the cirrus_laguna and cirrus_alpine sub-drivers are
missing from the cirrus driver package in modular X currently.  I believe this
is fixed in CVS however, and should be part of the RC3 release in a few days,
which we'll be updating to shortly.

Thanks for the report.
