<PRE>Hi, I reported a bug because open source driver for AMD cards reduced my 
laptops batter life to half:
<A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8891">https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8891</A>
Please either implement the solution (shipping two xorg-server packages 
and choosing from them during install), or extend the life of Mageia 2 
to 5 years (or at least 3), nobody can keep using Mageia to kill his 
battery life.
I know I asked about this before but it is critical.
Regards
</PRE>
