His general principle of fixing the modern stuff first and then working backwards until nobody is complaining any more seems pretty sane to me. Is the series at https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/12/6/516 sufficient in its own right to make Nouveau and ATI work or is more needed? What about NV? More generally if we were to take the series from https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/12/6/516 but not the series from https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/12/6/480 which sets of cards would we be including/excluding support for?
