Review of the strategy for KMS for Lucid. What is gong to be possible to enable. We are expecting radeon to generally be KMS aware by this time, a review of the Nouveau position may be in order. General decision was to enable Radeon immediatly and to pull in and enable Nouveau ASAP. Review of Nouveau shows it to need the latest and greatest drm-next stack some 2.9MB currently. This seems most appropriate for a separate linux-backbackp
