KMS is not recommended for ATI at this moment, so we'll ship it disabled
by default. There's also no stable non-experimental 2D or 3D stack
supporting KMS, so we'll have to do with user mode setting.
At this moment, our driver in extra is a stable released version. This
released version is rather old, and there's about 10-15 commits on the
stable branch that should get applied to the package. This fixes several
issues, but hasn't made it into a release.
