I, for one, would be interested to be "in the know" regarding xhci, especially if it is legal :-)

BTW, the old DRM radeon driver which was dropped - is it the 'radeon' that was loaded by X.org - where this spring for the first time i had a non-plainold-vesa support for my APU (CPU+GPU chip)? Or is it another stack of bits that call themselves drivers? ;)
