Not sure if it will be fixed for RC2 but it will probably be for one of the next RCs. > Can I just replace the "gpu/drm/nouveau" > directory? Or should I take the whole linux tree from nouveau's git again? That works sometimes, if the internal APIs haven't been broken between the kernel versions you're trying to mix, but no guarantees. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
