Dear All.

I would like to ask, when it will be possible to have kernel 2.6.35 with 
/sys/module/drm_kms_helper/parameters/poll to disable "hotplug" polling.

I have laptop with i915GM video and experience mouse cursor freezes every 10 second.

This is all about:  issue with "hotplug" polling on those systems, 
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29536.
Kernel 2.6.36 already has drm_kms_helper module parameter, but 2.6.35 still doesn't.


Thanks.
