Do drm and i915 work at all with our userland? ISTR that because Debian userland is built with KMS support, it expects drm2 and i915kms, but it still tries to load the old modules because it's using insmod/modprobe command aliases that expect Linux module names. FreeBSD provides both because their users can choose, but I'm not sure if this makes sense for us. If it doesn't, we could patch kfreebsd to rename the modules. -- Robert Millan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
