The intel and radeon drivers will be removed. The ability to build things as a module will be removed. Some bits will remain for the TEGRA arm board, since the transition from the drm code base isn't as straight forward as it was for the intel and amd drivers (the effort to emulate the kernel environment on arm is significantly higher than x86 because in addition to programming to the GPU, clocks, power regulators, etc need to be programmed as well. The interfaces here are not standardized and different greatly between FreeBSD and Linux). Absent any significant last minute issue, it is my intention to commit this change on Feb 21st, which is 20 days later than had been previously announced. Warner
