Can you point out which code of the kernel has not been made upstream yet so 
that I keep a track of it when it goes into mainline.

Also I tried compiling the source packages from Ubuntu repo (see original mail) 
but did not have any luck with that. Right now I don't care much about 3D 
stuff, I just need to get the basic 2D working.
