I'm glad to hear this went ahead, and sorry I wasn't around to help out
- I wrote it down in my Tasks list, but forgot that I'd be out of the
country at that time and didn't transfer it to the list I had in the UK.
D'oh!

I could be around next Monday, sure - I'll put it in my calendar this
time so I definitely don't lose it. =) Matej actually integrated a
function into the triage scripts at one point which automatically
extracted the correct card details from the first Xorg.0.log attached to
the bug and dumped them in the Whiteboard field, but I think it may be
broken at the moment; that's definitely a good way to handle that,
though. Could you outline what you want to do next week for the rest of
us, who weren't around for the IRC conversation? Thanks!
