Ah, I've misunderstood the question then. Well, looking at VMX related
bugs I think they are all filed for V2V needs. But I think that's okay
and partially chicken-egg problem (driver's not fully implemented -> it
doesn't get much attention from users -> it doesn't get much attention
from devels -> driver's not fully implemented ...).
