We could do, or the DRM driver could provide DMA methods for the framebuffer driver to use. I mean it might be that we should always be using DMA methods in all the drivers for radeon all the time anyway ? The fb driver gets told when DRI comes and goes which means the two can choose to co-operate if they wish. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
