I can try but will be very tough since I have to go through the code to get familiar with it and, as mentioned before, its not part of my dayjob, so time will be a problem. Developing from scratch takes much more time than fixing something. > Current code is _very_ far from kernel coding style, plus the > copyright blurp is very disturbing: I will fix the coding style before my first submission to dri-devel, which should be in January after I have setup my desktop with the hardware for testing. The copyright thing - I am sure Teddy can talk to his company and will confirm that we can change it to the way kernel code is done. -- Regards Sudip _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
