I was wondering whether KMS would officially return with 2.6.33 since a lot of fixes have gone into it? Obviously there will be a lengthy testing series first. Is it currently planned to try KMS again with 2.6.33?

You can still use kms, depends on your card but we have full support for it right now. greetings tpowa
As it stands, it requires recompiling the whole stack to enable DRI2 acceleration as well as using AUR packages. While this obviously is supported by the packages, I don't consider it "officially supported by Arch". Even the wiki says so. I'm talking about real official Arch support with supported packages now that KMS drivers are out of staging.
-- Sven-Hendrik It will be supported as .33 will ship kms. Right now .32 supports kms for ati and intel cards, nouveau is optional.
