Hello,

(please, don't blame me for using the binary only driver, I will
happily switch to a open source one once it properly runs mplayer,
e.g.).

Renaming the config options for suspend/sleep broke fglrx power
management.
It looks like your patch is against the fglrx driver, isn't it?
It is - I should have mentioned that, sorry.
This makes it 100% off-topic for linux-kernel - please send patches for
illegal modules to the vendors of these modules and not here.
Which would help the actual users of the module not one whit. Whereas
putting the patch here helps the people who need it and allows multiple
people to complain to the vendor.
...

The vendor has his own forums and support channels.
That's what the term "off-topic" describes.

And what's worst is that people on this list might become tainted
by seeing part of the fglrx source code.
