[Dri-devel] 64-bit kernel, 32-bit user. Possible? Painful?

2003-01-24 Thread Ian Romanick
So, I was thinking about some CPUs that are about to hit the market and how they will interact with DRI. The main issue that I came across was with x86-64. When x86-64 systems roll of the line, they'll (eventually?) have 64-bit kernel support and (for legacy apps) 32-bit user-mode support. M

[Dri-devel] Databook and goal of Silicon Motion, Inc Lynx3DM (SM720) DRI driver

2003-01-24 Thread Rick Jones
I have acquired a Silicon Motion, Inc. Lynx3DM (SM720) chip databook. I have a board with shared video memory and 4MB on the chip. My plans are.. 1. Making a minor patch to the XFree driver for this chip (to do a Left/Right mirror image). -- I hope to get my feet wet so to say with communicatin

[Dri-devel] DRI-CVS pseudo-lockups on radeon.o (Radeon VE/7000)

Hello. I've been having some troubles with dri-cvs for some time when running GL apps (especially the GL hacks that come with JWZs xscreensaver). In particular, I've noticed problems when running "endgame" and "menger" on the root and in windows and then running other windows over them or movi

[Dri-devel] request for small DMA test

2003-01-24 Thread Philip Brown
Would someone possibly do me the favour of either pointing me to a [very] small program that tests basic drm (Allocate DMA mem), (Read/Write DMA mem), (Free DMA mem) functionality, or, if you are feeling particularly generous,writing one? I'm not talking about excercising any specific video card
