Hi! I tried the xf86-video-modesetting driver with the new via KMS driver. It worked well but I had to turn off the cursor since I haven't finished the cursor in the kernel driver yet. By default the SWCursor option is set to false but when I placed that option in my xorg.conf file it never set SWCursor to TRUE. Also a buffer was still being allocated even with the software curor. This patch address this issue.
P.S I also tried the xorg driver on a i915 device with a LVDS but the screen was distored. It looks like a incorrect pitch size. I didn't see that with my via driver. diff --git a/src/driver.c b/src/driver.c index bde690c..1d62b7a 100644 --- a/src/driver.c +++ b/src/driver.c @@ -471,7 +471,7 @@ PreInit(ScrnInfoPtr pScrn, int flags) memcpy(ms->Options, Options, sizeof(Options)); xf86ProcessOptions(pScrn->scrnIndex, pScrn->options, ms->Options); - if (xf86ReturnOptValBool(ms->Options, OPTION_SW_CURSOR, FALSE)) { + if (xf86ReturnOptValBool(ms->Options, OPTION_SW_CURSOR, TRUE)) { ms->SWCursor = TRUE; } @@ -551,7 +551,8 @@ CreateScreenResources(ScreenPtr pScreen) drmmode_uevent_init(pScrn, &ms->drmmode); - drmmode_map_cursor_bos(pScrn, &ms->drmmode); + if (!ms->SWCursor) + drmmode_map_cursor_bos(pScrn, &ms->drmmode); pixels = drmmode_map_front_bo(&ms->drmmode); if (!pixels) return FALSE; _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
