Hello all, I'm not sure of whether I'm mailing this to the correct addresses or not, so bare with me.? I noticed that the file 'shared-core/drm_pciids.txt' contains 2 entries in the 'sis' group that actually have the same pci vender id as 'xgi'.? The only difference is that the id's are upper c

Ok, that sounds good.? What we have right now is a very simple 2d driver API that basically blits bitmaps from userspace to the screen.? Our drivers have a duality system.? They use a kernel driver for basic access to the card, but for many drivers, almost everything is MMIO, so the kernel dri

Sounds good, but here's the catch, I would like to use Gallium to accelerate the whole windowing system.? I want our windowing system to use libGL for all rendering, so Gallium would basically be running on the video card with no windowing system standing in the way. Dee -Origina

So that means that I can get hardware acceleration by writing the winsys for Syllable, regardless of the fact that we don't use DRI/DRM?? I guess the main question is, "Do I have to use the DRI/DRM drivers in order to use the current hardware pipes?" Dee -Original Message- Fr

I'm not sure which list is the correct one to post these questions, so I'm posting to both.? All diagrams of the Gallium architecture show the ability of using Gallium in various OS's that are completely different with each other.? However, each diagram that has a specific graphics chipset (i915

Yeah, you're right on the money about the architecture, except that we also have a hardware specific userspace driver that the windowing system uses to either take care of video operations with MMIO or by sending the command to the kernel driver.  My plan is to replace the kernel drivers with

Hello,   I'm Dee Sharpe and I have been working on the Syllable port of Mesa3d.  Now it is time to move on to hardware acceleration.  What would it take to port the DRI to another windowing system?  The glue code that I have to write will be in C++.  If anyone has pointers or guidelines on wha
