[ACPI] Radeon PM Support

[Andrew B. <bar...@os...>]

I just bought a Radeon 7000 video card on-line. What is the status of
and plans for power management support for this card? I read
Documentation/power/video.txt, and it says that I can't have framebuffer
console. That could be a problem as I use bootsplash. It also says I
need a patched X server. My Google search turned up a page concerning
S3/Radeon that says the patch is no longer necessary (I can't find the
URL at the moment, sorry). Any thoughts, tips, tricks, etc. would be
greatly appreciated.
