What's your definition of "sane configuration" ? Nothing is stopping you from using the PCI ids as the *actual* tagging mechanism, but perhaps using the xfree86 card name as a comment to help the user out a bit. IMO, that extra "config comment" stuff should be handled at user-level. Keep that sort of stuff out of the kernel. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
