Hi, I've been using nouveau driveau for 8 months or so, using automated build from drm git, xf86-video-nouveau git and even sometimes mesa drm git and discovered the linux-core build did not build the nouveau driver the hard way: X was refusing to start as the nouveau.ko modules was not loaded nor build. Build process did chnage without obvious way to know womething was wrong.
Then I tried to build it by hand as the nouveau directory is still there but compilation fails! I wonder why the code is still in the tree as it make me waste quite some time trying to find where the missing definitions had gone. After some hours of goggling I discovered there was an git kernel tree for nouveau. Got the feeling from dri-devel posts it was supposed to be merged for rc1, checked master tree and found it was not merged. So my question are: - Why not purely delete nouveau files from linux-core and issue error messages? - When will nouveau in kernel git tree be merged? I know the merge windows is closed but that usually does not hold for new drivers Thanks. Using nouveau is quite painfull. Please be aware that as distribution move too slowly into nominal nouveau driver support, I'm not probably the only guy lost in the dust. -- eric ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!
