Thanks. That'll help. > Forget about the GATOS 3D drivers. The current DRM can deal with any others. Gatos DRM forgotten. The extent to which the userspace Gatos 3D can be discarded has yet to be determined, depending on how intertwined it is with their 2D modifications. As I'm beginning to get clear, there is a now-unnecessary initialization change in the Gatos 2D that caused a matching change in the Gatos userspace 3D. Both of those need to get ripped out, and then probably patch the whole Gatos ati.2 up to the current xfree-4.3.0. In theory, at that point the Gatos and xfree ati driver directories should be nearly identical except for Xv stuff, the i2c code, the tuner drivers, and the Rage Theatre drivers. Correct? If that is correct then at that point the Gatos video code could be easily merged into the DRI or XFree CVS without breaking much, if anything, and for that reason I just CC'ed the gatos-devel list into the conversation. Let's see if anyone besides bug-bemoaned users are listening... While it's on my mind, is there some special reason for the private i2c implementation that Gatos uses? (Asking both lists if anyone knows.) Radeon can't possibly be the only graphics board that has one... or is it? In either case, could/should that code be moved to the kernel i2c subsystem? > Indeed, that's up to the kernel hackers, and my experience suggests they > wouldn't like the idea. Your call though. :) I'll table it for later. ;) > I'm not sure there's much that can be done about people who can't read > the MAINTAINERS file... There's only so many kernel maintainers. Getting them on board would at least limit the field, and get us notification when some schlep sends a DRM patch to the LKML.
