Yes. We want to port DRI for AMD ATI Radeon. We have implementation for Linux and we have to change it to work on OpenSolaris.
Thank you for your interest. If you want to join our small but growing community please sign up to discuss at lists.auroraux.org mailing list. It is running under Mailman software and we establish it there because it was much easier for communication and development. After we achieve some results we'll announce it and offer to os.o community and to adequate project. So far, we are in process of intensive communication and organisation. We exchange ideas in order to make some conclusion for further work. I think that for three days of our existence we already concluded what we need to do, and now we discuss design approach how to do that. It looks like that our main problem is very old implementation of DRI in ON Consolidation. First, we need to extract it in some way and then to reorganise code, since this implementation is very old. Current DRI code base is completely reorganised and has been split into two parts - one is pure .so library and other is kernel module. Our general approach is to make something that 'just works'. After that we'll optimize our porting DRI software for OpenSolaris kernel (SunOS). If you have experience you are more then welcome to join us!

Is it to just bring things up to par to the ATI Radeon on Linux/BSD implementations? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ xwin-discuss mailing list xwin-discuss at opensolaris.org
