Ah, you're treading into new kernel memory manager (GEM) territory. There are a bunch of new userspace APIs for the intel memory manager to allow for some of the graphics operations to be done in the kernel (amongst other things). I would expect another intel driver to be released to accommodate the API changes released just last week in libdrm-2.4.0. On the other hand, unless you're using Eric Anholt's drm-intel-next kernel tree, none of the kernel interfaces are actually there to make the new libdrm release useful. These have been proposed for linux-2.6.28, but I don't think they've been merged yet. So, sticking with libdrm-2.3.1 for now is definitely the safe option. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
