Sorry it has been awhile. I have anew patch against 2.6.7 for peoepl to 
try out. Its big because it has alot of driver updates. It has a newer
Mach64 driver. Note it has atyfb_base.c.new file. These changes I wanted 
to test but my old laptop died. No more Mach64 card to test with :-( 
It has the cirrusfb driver update. Also the Epson1355 driver has been 
updated as well. Kryo, SGI Visual Workstation, 3Dfx, and VGA16fb driver 
has ben port to use framebuffer_alloc/release. I have updates to the 
rivafb driver to support more cards. I merged in more changes from Tony. 
Thanks Tony. The neomagic also has some more acceleration fixes.

The patch against 2.6.7 is at

Has anyone else tried this?  A lot of it fails to apply for me.  I 
pulled a clean 2.6.7 from kernel.org.

A large portion of the diffs succeed but with an offset.
