Hi all,

I've just pushed a big patch to openchrome trunk. The changeset 593
merges all of the randr_branch changes as well as a few additional fixes
that were not committed. It includes most notably laptop panel native
modesetting for K8M890, P4M890, P4M900 and CX700 and ARGB hardware
cursor support, amongst other fixes. Although I'm the one committing the
patch, this is Gabriel Mansi's work and he deserves all the credits.
Thanks Gabriel :-)

I kindly request openchrome users to test this new code and report any
regression. So If you are the owner of K8M890, P4M890, P4M900 or CX700
based laptop, please make sure you are _not_ enabling the VBEModes
option. Also, if you ever had to disable hardware cursor (option
SWCursor), please try to enable it again.

Regards,
Xavier
