Sure, I guess I should have clarified this with "If you want me to review and merge this, then pls look into atomic, since that seems actually beneficial for my own interest". I'm not paid by intel to review driver patches at random, but to keep overall drm in nice shape. Moving drivers to atomic and using more shared infrastructure is in that interest, reviewing random driver patches isn't. Sorry for not making clear, I kinda have that as my implicit context. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
