Is still don't understand this point. Why do you need to define a primary API? The DRM isn't really tied to OpenGL in any way so the common API is the DRM API. People should be able to implement any API on top of DRM. And speaking of the DRM API I feel it is too heavy currently. I would really like something that didn't need much (if any) device specific init code in user space. -- Ville Syrjälä [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
