Description: Can this package added to to repos? Its really useful for using Xorg on qemu/kvm using Linux>=3.5 that includes a KMS cirrus driver. This is enabled in our current linux package.

Thanks you.

From README: "This is a generic modesetting driver. The idea is to piggy-back the X driver on top of the DRM and Gallium3D drivers (DRM for modesetting and Gallium3D for Exa acceleration)"
