Stop TCPA, stupid software patents and corrupt politicians!

I switched from fglrx drivers to radeon to get KMS some time ago, and got noticeable improvements in 2D (mainly scrolling and Kwin desktop effects) and video playback, as well as improved stability and fewer rendering bugs. I never did any actual benchmarks though, so this observation is more anecdotal than scientific.
Anyway, even if KMS isn't as good as UMS yet, it still beats fglrx, so it's really nothing to complain about...

1) No delay or flickering when changeing virtual terminals (Ctrl+Alt+Fx)
2) OpenGL acceleration on more than one virtual terminal simultaneously!
