Aw heck, I was too slow in reply, but anyway: So we'll have a 3dfx.ko for glide and a tdfx.ko for XF86? yuk. Can we have <prefix>3dfx.ko for each of these instead? Such as g3dfx.ko & x3dfx.ko or even glide-3dfx.ko and dri-3dfx.ko? Or is the problem that we missed some layering somewhere? I suppose that I can dream that one day it will be common to have more than one driver to choose from for a given device (e.g. FreeBSD project driver and third party driver, ala OSS). Can we adopt a policy of using a prefix+common-name for driver names when we have more than one to choose from? -- Jacques Vidrine / n@nectar.com / nectar@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
