5:12 PM EDT 		The new driver fixes the screen blanking wakeup bug on my laptop, which is a good thing. Unfortunately, it breaks on any 1280x1024 configuration, and I'm forced to back off on the resolution in order for X to work at all. The fonts are jagged and the sizes are all wrong, so I've dumped the 8756 driver and gone back to the 8178, except for my laptop.

Now I'm just a leeeeeetle bit nervous. Hmmm....
