Gareth, the current driver is broken. If someone wants to use video
capture they _need_ both GATOS 2d driver and GATOS drm driver, period.

What's so wrong about upgrading ?

Also, I can make drm driver work nice with older 2d drivers - as soon as
someone will show me a way to tell the version of the 2d driver that is
accessing the drm driver.
