A 2.6.31-1~experimental.1 kernel package got uploaded to Debian's
experimental repository in the past few days. Right now there's only
amd64 binaries in addition to the source, but CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS is
not set anyway (along with the new CONFIG_HID_WACOM, which I've been
waiting on for quite a while) so I'll be having a go at building a
686-bigmem flavor i386 binary set with KMS if you want to give it a
whirl.

I've been having KMS issues under 2.6.30 I suspect stem from my
older HDMI-connected HDTV spitting out broken 720p/1080i EDID, but
have been waiting on 2.6.31 to test more heavily since I need to
stick with a 32-bit kernel and don't like being unable to use all my
RAM (no working KMS+PAE until 2.6.31).
