It's been years and this feature has yet to be implemented. Or is it supposed to work with the KMS driver? Everything else seems to work perfectly for me (most of the time, sometimes starting X just hangs and sometimes it's not accelerated until I reboot). If it still hasn't been implemented, then why? Is anyone working on it? Any hope for the near future? I'd love to help with whatever I can.
