Hi!
As requested in the download page, I'm notifying of some problems I
found with the Debian packages. I haven't tested the driver thoroughly,
hence, the following is concerning the compilation and installation only.
Line 41 of file modules/drm-trunk/i830_irq.c says
drm_device_t *dev = (drm_device_t *)device;
instead of
drm_device_t *dev = (drm_device_t *)arg;
The compilation fails if not corrected.
The other problem is a kind of cosmetic one: Debian policy forbids
overwritting of files belonging to other packages, therefore it could be
nice to either warn about the kernel config parameters that shouldn't be
selected before compiling one (CONFIG_DRM_I810, CONFIG_DRM_MGA,
CONFIG_DRM_RADEON, CONFIG_DRM40_TDFX, CONFIG_DRM_R128 & CONFIG_DRM_I830)
or leaving the files in a temporary directory and asking the user to move
them by hand (So he knows the files and is allowed to backup if he wish)
Hope it helps, and thanks for working in this project!, sincerely...
Patricio
