Robert Nelson is my hero! I don't know how many hours he has put into
his patch set, but I imagine from my own trials and tribulations it's a
lot. Interestingly, I had a look at his latest today, and was interested
to see the addition of the Vivante DRI driver stub. Not that it really
interests us, but if one were to be thinking of running a X server, the
non-source code binary libs and accelerated X module are now available
for hard-float, which should mean that any X server gets the full
benefit of accelerated. Something I put on the bottom of (my somewhat
long list today) as "needs looking into". But probably by the time I get
around to this, we'll have thrown away our Wandboards and be using
something 100x more powerful anyway. ;)
