Might be some #ifdef fallout that needs to be done, but there shouldn't be anything fundamental. Maybe the old dri1 days code has something, but that's all historical cruft anyway. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
