TTM, Radeon KMS Pull Request Goes In

Recompile mesa and don't use modesetting-gem, it's outdated, switch to master. Congrats you has a text on your screen! Now run crysis!

Thx for the tip ! I'll try this tonight.

Didn't he quit his job to work full time on OGC?

Obviously he is very talented. I mean, who can build an entire graphics card from scratch?

I bet AMD or Intel is hiring him at some point.

Or maybe even buys his work?

You n00b, I built three last night, in my sleep, that are 1000x faster than a radeon 4870x2.

I just refuse to share.

Humor aside I hope the OGP continues to get attention and that openness in general can take over most every market that exists on the planet. ^^

Especially open cars.....%#@!&* car industry.

You need branch radeon-gem-cs3 for the ddx at :

Now that the kernel modesetting code has been merged for Linux 2.6.31, is there an estimate when the same will happen for xf86-video-ati?

it doesn't seem like the code was pulled yet. i'm getting worried that it might not make it for this one :/

Was it merged into the master branch at some point?

[bridgman]

Yes, the radeon-rewrite branch was merged into mesa master a week or so ago.

I meant libdrm -- has the modesetting-gem branch been merged into master?
