AIUI this is something which all vendors struggle with, but at least for
the OMAP4 we should be in reasonably good shape as TI are committed to
providing the necessary binaries for Oneiric. I raised this with Ricardo
and he was confident it would be okay, so I'm surprised to still see
this in the report.

I also don't quite understand why the updated Unity/Nux packages
wouldn't Just Work if installed on Natty -- is the issue that they
require updated X11 and Mesa?
