Not only have they not submitted any code to the open driver, they have
also refused to let us release the patch to enable it.

If anyone from AMD, or one of their OEMs, wants to see this fixed,
please contact me off-list and we can make some noise.

If you're not one of those people, you should let your OEM know how
important open source graphics support is to you.
