Ok, so there *are* some end-users (not developers) relying on these external firmwares? In that case probably the best thing to do is to not use these new functions for video - at least for chips that do not require signed firmware. All I'd like to do is reduce the number of occurences of the "build path - load firmware" logic. _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
