[oi-dev] [OpenIndiana-discuss] Sun/Oracle China's DRM//KMS Sol11.2 port backported to function on old-style gfxp_private from pre-2010 era but still immediatedly PANICS

[Мартин Бохниг]

 Hi Ken,

did you ever have a look at the hw support matrix of the last ums (aka non-kms)  Intel 2.6.3->2.9.1  ddx???
It is suited for museum presentations, showing that DRM/DRI was already available in the steam/coal age.


For radeon: Sure, but that wasn't even scratched so far.
(and it is complicated/impossible to maintain the same drm submodule for different revisions of radeon-drm and intel-drm [must be based on the same revision]).
But as OI uses the final ums-radeon ddx and currently has no working modern kms based intel-drm, our only solution is to stick with the old stuff you just mentioned for the time being, unfortunately  ...


For new GPU's - for now - the only solution continues to be the vesa ddx plus the console-resolution change utility.
