    if xconfigpath and not output_file_specified:
NameError: name 'xconfigpath' is not defined

due to vc.videocards being an empty list.

There are free unichrome drivers.  See unichrome.sourceforge.net.  It's not
clear to me why they haven't been incorporated into the official x.org
distribution.  Perhaps Red Hat could add them as a patch?  That would be a huge
help since it would save all us poor unichrome owners from having to compile the
entire x.org distribution!

FC5 x.org includes the via driver.
