Scrap that please, this is not the right way to apply the patches.  The
following commands should actually work (assuming you're on sid and have
the latest 3.2 kernel installed):

sudo apt-get install linux-source-3.2
tar xf /usr/src/linux-source-3.2.tar.bz2
wget http://people.canonical.com/~mlankhorst/drm-abi-patches.tgz
cd linux-source-3.2
tar xf ../drm-abi-patches.tgz
for patch in patches/*; do patch -Np1 -i $patch;done
cp /boot/config-3.2.0-3-amd64 .config
make deb-pkg

Then there should be a linux-image-3.2.21-<something>.deb in the parent
directory that you can install with dpkg.  Michele, could you do that?

Cheers,
       Sven
