On my laptop I use the VESA DPMS patch with acpi_video so I can suspend 
correctly by shutting off the video adapter so there is less power drain, but 
ever since the move to attach the acpi_video driver to the correct spot my 
mach64.ko kernel module doesn't attach if the acpi_video is loaded since they 
seem to want the same device.  Is there any chance of getting both to attach, 
I think I remember a comment a while back about someone working on something 
like this?  Or would it just be better if I want the drm module to load and 
still have the adapter shutoff stuff to put that VESA code into the mach64 
driver?
