Doing the DRM update was a big effort for me because I'm not all that familiar with AGP, GART, etc., yet it's important to clean it up so we can get it into the mainline of the kernel (otherwise, it will keep eating small bits of my time each time a new kernel is released). Of course, having 2.5.29 corrupt files on some of my IDE disks didn't help either. Anyhow, I think we're very close now to having DRM out of the way (only one open issue is left over). --david
