So the word is that -generic- won't support 3d because it doesn't have DRM, but you could always have an OpenBSD kernel with DRM compiled in? Just want to be sure.
And I thought, Ted, that you had been working on DRM for OpenBSD, but I couldn't find much about it. Do I have my facts straight? danno -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ted Unangst Sent: Tuesday, April 24, 2007 12:08 AM To: Matthew Szudzik Cc: misc@openbsd.org Subject: Re: radeon driver in -current Xorg 7.2?
