Ok, many thanks for your answer. I would very much appreciate it though if you could merge the following patch upstream: http://www.splitted-desktop.com/~gbeauchesne/libva/patches/031_g45_older_libdrm.patch This patch is essential to build the i965 driver on RHEL6 (and all it's clones, like Scientific Linux 6, Centos, etc..) and since RHEL6 is a long term support distro this problem will be around for a long time. RHEL6 ships with libdrm 2.4.20. I fear if the patch isn't merged upstream now then soon it will fail to apply due to changes upstream. Also what about this patch of yours: 041_g45_internals.patch Shouldn't this one be applied upstream too? Thanks again for your help. _______________________________________________ Libva mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libva
