If we're going to merge in a newer libdrm, could we pull in the
libdrm-nouveau drm API bump to 0.0.15 (ie: at least this commit[1]).
The kernel interface changed (again), so we'd need this to get a more
recent nouveau snapshot in Karmic - which we probably want, as KMS is
getting the bugs shaken out now.
