Hi everyone,

Finally figured out how to use the X.Org automatic submission 
script after realizing that I had to change the script in order for 
OpenChrome DDX to build in the first place.

OpenChrome DDX Version 0.6 has added the following new features.

- First official support for CX700, VX700, and VX800 chipsets 
  integrated TMDS transmitter (i.e., DVI support)
- Initial support for Silicon Image SiI 164 TMDS transmitter


OpenChrome DDX Version 0.6 has the following improvements.

- Improved FP reinitialization when resuming from standby
  (HP 2133 Mini-Note, FIC CE260 / CE261 based netbooks like 
   Everex CloudBook and Sylvania g netbook)
- Improved automatic detection of display resources
- Improved X Server stability in dual monitor mode
- Automatic active steering of the display controller channel to the 
  correct display output device


OpenChrome DDX Version 0.6 fixes the following bugs.

- Fix for the disruption of the VT (Virtual Terminal) screen bug 
  introduced in Version 0.5
- Fix for HP 2133 Mini-Note's PCIe WLAN getting turned off 
  inadvertently bug introduced in Version 0.5
