Hi, Martin,
Great to hear that. How about we start it in Opensolaris ? I am also
porting Radeon driver to
solaris, and the driver can work since snv_68, but the performance is
not good. It even has some
bad impact on 2D rendering.
I definitely made a big mistake. Alan once told me to start it in
opensolaris community early. But I
didn't do that. Now, I want to correct this: let's start this project in
opensolaris and work together.
I sent a email to driver-disscuss aliases already, and got some +1. So,
we could send proposal to
OGB now with help from core contributors.
Best Regards,
-minskey
