Please ignore this. I found in this pile of mails more complete bug report 
from Dennis. Sorry but there was so many different mails in this thread 
that I have lost few times.

And of course Jean-Michel Bruenn invited me on IRC to work together on 
fixing radeon support in mesa-lib and on synaptics touchpad. It is good to 
have Jean-Michel Bruenn here because he actaully does something which 
helps Lunar be better.
