If your only concern is modifying the set_mode_major API definition, then I can 
remove that part from my patch as that was really just cleanup.  All rendering 
would still be transformed.  If your concern is all rendering being 
transformed, we could always just add the transform as a parameter to 
set_mode_major and let the driver apply it if desired.  I'd be curious to see 
more details of what your patchset does to address this.  Would you be willing 
to email me a copy so that I can see if it addresses my needs?

Thanks!

Ben

Sure, but that's completely fixable without breaking server <-> driver
API, and I have a patchset to do so that I'll post in a week or so.

Cheers,
