On the DRM portion can you look at the work Paul has done, it is much cleaner
and less intrusive, you are also using the old method which is deprecated now in
the kernel, the new method is available in Pauls patch in the -mm kernel, maybe
Paul can generate a patch against 2.6.11....

My feeling on this now is that we should change to generating hashes for SHM
handles for *all* platforms, having it different on 32 and 64 bits isn't going
to help thing, make it break obviously for everyone and we'll find out if we can
use this method or not ...

I'd like to merge the DRM into the kernel and see who complains and maybe
provide a command line option to fall back to the old 32-bit handle for 32-bit
systems in case somebody breaks badly...

I think between the two of you a clean solution should be possible,
breaking the ABI between X and DRI clients isn't as bad as breaking the
kernel/userspace boundard but I'd like to keep the 32-bit ABI the same if
possible but I guess it might not be, I've no issues with telling someone to
upgrade X and DRI at the same time from snapshots..
