via drm enters linux kernel.

The via drm module, heavily worked on by the unichrome project, but hosted by dri.sourceforge.net has now appeared in the 2.6.11-rc2-mm2 kernel patch, which is a good step into inclusion in the official kernel series and thus, of course, into common distributions. The included via version is 2.3.3, but since all via linux-core drm modules prior to 2.4.5 exhibit a bug that may kill your X server randomly, I still recommend fetching your drm module from dri.sourceforge.net
