Maybe if you mean s/grand plan/pipe dream/ ... Specifically, wrt to DDX drivers for ATI/AMD GPUs: xf86-video-ati supports old GPUs on which glamor can't work, so -modesetting can never be a complete replacement. xf86-video-amdgpu is also used by the amdgpu-pro stack, with modifications which are probably unsuitable for -modesetting. There's also still a feature gap to -modesetting, e.g. the latter doesn't support TearFree yet, and there doesn't seem to be any interest to fix that. So I'm afraid we can't get rid of those anytime soon, if ever. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://www.amd.com Libre software enthusiast | Mesa and X developer _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
