As soon as the packages pop up I'd be more than happy to test. I don't like manually installing drivers because I don't think they work with dkms, and with all the kernel upgrades kubuntu likes to push out, it's much easier for me to let it do the work itself. My laptop's video is very tempermental, NV drivers don't even work on it.. and my laptop becomes near-unusable unless I custom my xorg file and force it into vesa (hell my ctrl-alt-F? consoles still don't work on multiple distros). So once I see the packages come up, I will be sure to try them out.
