-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Initial support for i915 based graphics cards were introduced last April and enabled in the Makefile in November resulting an i915-ready agp driver, but the drm subsystem was not working. Thanks to A. Popov the problem of drm was solved and the changes were put to the cvs tree (i915_drv.c 1.3, drm_drv.c 1.4) in December. In the last few months this code remained in the MAIN branch resulting that 6.1 users can get only a half working driver for their i915 based systems. I have been using a patched driver on my 6.X box for almost 4 months without any problem, so I really do not understand why this part of the drm code was not MFC'd into the RELENG_6 branch. Is there any reason for doing so? Thanks, Laci - -- László Károly <laszlokaroly@tvnetwork.hu> Department of Altaic Studies Egyetem str. 2.
