Should I test this set of patches for the VIA driver or wait until you have a second version of this patch?
Testing this on via would be awesome! Iirc I haven't changed anything in the via specific patches, but if it's more convenient you can also directly test my branch:

Okay I tried the patches and it locked up the openchrome X server. I'm going to try your branch tonight to see if it makes any difference. If it still fails I will have to track down what the problem is.
