		This will ultimately be solved by "shatter", but I'm not
sure if there

	Shatter looks neat (first time I hear about it), but is there
perhaps a more immediate workaround? It used to work, just a week ago.

Hmm, the abstract for the Linux Plumbers Conference paper to be
presented in September claims Shatter is an EXA extension and
IntelLinuxGraphics 2.8 dropped EXA support. Doesn't sound like it'll
help the 945 guys after all!  :-)
