Right, taht's what I was saying.

I should have stated I'm running 4.3.99.13 already. My question was if
someone was already working on an ebuild that built the driver
externally (with the synaptics ebuild). Is there a reason why this
wasn't released (with teh external driver build) as a -r1 release to
4.3.99.14?
TIA.
