The performance of my HP Compaq 6715b with an RS690M has regressed so badly in Oneiric that I've been forced into action. Based on the work done in Bug #874784 and the patches provided by Alex Deucher in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37679 I have built my first kernel. It builds on 3.0.0-13-generic #22 from the Oneiric Proposed repository and I have only built the i386, which is what I run.

I have attached a copy of the new kernel I am running, which restored the 3D acceleration on my hardware. It would be great if others could test and then we could work out a way to get these patches incorporated into the next kernel release for Oneiric.
