dri2 and/or kms status?

[Zajec]

It will most likely be 2.6.31 since the merge window for 2.6.30 is closing soon.

What chipsets may we expect to see supported in 2.6.31?

[Mithrandir]

What chipsets may we expect to see supported in 2.6.31?

If kms will be merged then R100-R500.

Hopefully r1xx-r7xx.

Hopefully r1xx-r7xx.

Best news I've read today!

Best news I've read today!

In the recent kernel logs and IRC convos I have definitely seen some things about radeon-specific enhancements in .30

This wouldn't be KMS by any chance? That would be quite surprising.

http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/snapshots/patch-2.6.29-git10.log

There is specific stuff about r600 in there (ctrl f)

Why is r600 mentioned at all in the kernel logs if not KMS?

2.6.30 adds r6xx/r7xx drm support for 2D and video acceleration (EXA and Xv). There is no radeon KMS support in 2.6.30.

Ok, so I have got all the git branches compiled and running, with the exception of the DDX driver. For some reason it won't let me compile it.

radeon_textured_video.c: In function ‘RADEONPutImageTextured’:
radeon_textured_video.c:505: error: ‘struct _ScrnInfoRec’ has no member named ‘fboffset’
radeon_textured_video.c:510: error: ‘struct _ScrnInfoRec’ has no member named ‘fboffset’
radeon_textured_video.c:572: error: ‘struct _ScrnInfoRec’ has no member named ‘fboffset’

Any tips? I have R500

I ran into this as well.

I just messaged airlied on #dri-devel and he said,

<airlied> mattst88|laptop: oops I forgot to push the fix

It's fixed as of http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~airlied...bd8b4173b9547a

[EmbraceUnity]

thanks, I just did a git pull and it worked... guess that explains why.

good work

now, how do you turn DRI2 on? special xorg.conf setting?

[EmbraceUnity]

Well, the new stack works slightly better

Anybody know how to test gallium?
