No, but they seem (finally!) to work. There is one odd thing -- I
had to do some tweaking to force the AGP driver to load before the DRM
driver -- but I guess that's why it's still a development snapshot..
I wasn't necessarily suggesting that the driver be merged in; I'd be
happy if this was fixed by a new upstream release (especially if I have
a temporary fix).
Please leave this bug open so the next person trying to get this
working finds some useful information.
