Currently I have FreeBSD-current (as of a couple of days ago) running on it. I've read through most of the emails here discussing drm-next support but I'm not at all clear on where to start? What do I need to do/get? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Bob -- Bob Willcox | In real love you want the other person's good.
