Anssi maybe should we alter drakx-kbd-mouse-x11 &amp; harddrake:
we could run modinfo on the module for the card, check whether
the reported firmware in the output are available or not, and
enable kms accordingly (with defaulting to vesa instead of radeon
on r700+ due to the faillure to run without KMS support)
