Hello Tim, as mentioned earlier on [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm working on the savage S3 code drop, specifically on the 3D driver. A few days ago I managed to get a working 3D driver ported to Mesa 4. It is now in DRI CVS on the savage-2-0-0-branch. However, many users (including myself) are experiencing more or less serious problems with the 2D driver from the code drop. We have to use it for now as it is the only driver we have that is DRI aware. It also has some nice features that would be worth integrating into a reliable 2D driver, like interpolated scaling of video overlays or hardware motion compensation.
I have no experience with XFree86 2D drivers and not much useful documentation of the Savage hardware. I was hoping that we could join forces towards a Savage 2D and 3D driver combination for future XFree86 releases. Therefore I'm writing to you as the maintainer of the Savage 2D driver now. Please get in touch if you're interested. We can discuss further details later on. Happy holidays and best regards, Felix Disclaimer: I'm only speaking for myself here, not as a representative of the DRI team. However, I do believe that a cooperation would make everybody happy. ;-) ------------ __\|/__ ___ ___ ------------------------- Felix ___\_e -_/___/ __\___/ __\_____ You can do anything, Kühling (_____\Ä/____/ /_____/ /________) just not everything [EMAIL PROTECTED] \___/ \___/ U at the same time. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
