- Ilia's PMPEG improvements
- MSI fixes, and another attempt at enabling by default
- Initial GK208 support, just modesetting
- "Old" PM code gone, new infrastructure and various different stages of support (depending which chipset / ram type etc) is in its place. This includes support that goes beyond what the previous code was capable of. User control has been deliberately sabotaged, it's not safe to use still.
- Thermal management / fan control that's been present for a while is turned ON by default now.
- Misc other fixes that have accumulated

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
