I not using your packages, just a hacked copy of one of your spec
files.I am using alot of the patches from your 4.1.99.2-0.2.3 release.
Quite a few of them have been merged into the current cvs tree.I have
compiling the kernel DRM modules enabled and I am manually copying them
myself.

I suspect this might have something to do with the MVP3 chipset on this
