Thanks Bryce. Does the release of -intel 2.5.0 change this in any way? I know it requires libdrm 2.4.0 (Intrepid currently has 2.3.1 I think), but given they now both have releases rather than simply git-tips, are they not considered stable (enough)?

The concern is that over the 6 months between Intrepid and Jaunty that the G4x series of chips is going to become considerably more popular than it is today and at present many users are experiencing problems even installing and booting to a GUI. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=889323.

Is there some testing PPA that these things get pushed into first? I am happy to try things out from there to check for regressions etc.

Thanks again
