I'm looking forward to it, I'm having some serious trouble... For example, I can't get X 4.3 to work with something other than 1024x768 with the fbdev driver. It is capable of 1400x1050. Using kernel 2.6.0-test2 I managed to get the vesafb to work with 1400x1050, but now X complains about not being able to initialize a mouse, :-( I was kinda suspecting that everything would work in a few hours...
