It is odd that kernelnewbies.org did not mention the updates to compcache in their release notes. I believe that compcache support is supposed to be at the stage where using the in-kernel code is recommended by its developers now.

To bad full proper Phenom II x 6 support wasn't included in this release.

Does someone know if Radeon (r700) KMS can now run as cool as UMS? Also, is there an equivalent now for:

Option "ForceLowPowerMode" "on"

for KMS?

This is scheduled for 2.6.35...

the best part of this kernel is this wine bugfix: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15395#c34

For r600/r700, pass this argument in the kernel command line:

radeon.dynpm=1.

And thank the developers, for it's working great.

Will try out as soon as 2.6.34 arrives in Gentoo.

Is it possible to force a constant low power mode though? (Like ForceLowPowerMode in UMS X.Org.)
