Hey Christian Konig, thanks for all your hard work on the driver, I've been
checking bug 98046 which details something similar, and have seen your work on
improving the pll code, which I have been examining to see if I can understand
more about this situation, but I'm a noob with graphics processing at this
level.

James Cameron in discussion on bug 98046 has examined the pll issue and has
resorted to forcing the install of kernel 3.13.0-117-generic.  He has traced
the bad commit to 32167016076f714f0e35e287fbead7de0f1fb179

I'm afraid I haven't done any git bisecting of kernels etc and don't even know
how, yet, to look up what this commit is - I have some reading to do; I'd like
to learn.

This is affecting my imac 2009, which for me was some outlay, as I don't work,
and with its virtually unchangeable graphics card is really getting my goat, as
I'd really been looking forward to using wayland.
