intel name libkms patch suggestion

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,
This could be a problem with Ubuntu's sysfs namings, but I was finding
that libkms was failing in linux_from_sysfs() when it failed to detect
that my driver's name was 'i915', not 'intel' as it currently is in
the code.

I've attached a patch that corrects this to detect things named
'i915'. (if its proper to correct via a patch, not a sysfs entry) With
this patch on my Intel 4500HD on Ubuntu Linux, I can run modetest
successfully.

Cheers,
Kevin DuBois
