Yes, I've seen the dri list archives, and adding support for this in fbdev will result in code dupliation :-(. However, at least 3 people have mailed me that they are using their somewhat old pc as a set top box with mplayer, DirectFB and i810fb. No X.You don't need X to use the DRM, just some privileged client to initialize it.
It feels a bit silly to to use drm just for vsync interrupts. Besides there are a lot of cards that don't have a drm driver but do have an fbdev driver. IMHO fbdev is the logical place for this stuff. -- Ville Syrjälä syrjala@sci.fi http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com
