No. But a summary of gallium is at http://www.tungstengraphics.com/wiki/index.php/Gallium3D if you haven't seen it already. > Where should I start > looking in the code if I want to port Gallium3D to different platform > (OS and graphics H/W)? Alternatively, if I want to write a porting > guide where should I start? The GPU-specific driver code should be written in a manner such that it doesn't matter what OS you're running on. The OS-related things should be put into a "winsys" module. The "winsys" module/layer is intended to insulate the GPU driver from the OS-specifics. Beyond that, I think you'll have to ask more specific questions. > 2. Is there a separate mailing list for Gallium3D? No. > 3. What is the difference between Gallium3D on embedded and desktop platforms? I expect any potential differences would wind up in the winsys module mentioned above. -Brian > > Thanks and regards, > > ~Plug > > On Fri, Oct 10, 2008 at 2:40 PM, Brian Paul > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> PLUG GULP wrote: >>> Hi, >>> >>> I am new to Mesa (but not to Linux development).
