I'm not much of a DRM-er, but what's blocking us from just replacing the simplefb driver with DRM completely? Just being conservative and allowing flexibility? Or are there technical reasons this wouldn't be a proper replacement? It sounds like supporting 2 drivers provides at least some small complications, like in patch 1, where you're trying to avoid repeating similar logic in 2 framebuffer-handling drivers. Brian
