Hi! Pierre, you're right, and the same applies to FreeBSD: nobody started to work on this. I will let Fran=C3=A7ois comment for DragonFly, but on FreeBSD, our probl= em is that the diff with Linux was too large to do an easy port of a driver. This was fixed in DRM core earlier this year, and I'm about to finish an update to i915 which is the last part to finally have a small diff with Linux. At that point our entire DRM subsystem will correspond to Linux 3.8 (minus dma-buf). At that point, it will be far easier to contribute to FreeBSD. As Martin said, TTM is already ported so I believe everything is in place to port Nouveau. In the coming months, the goal will be to bring our DRM subsystem to match Linux 3.9 then 3.10, etc. I personnally have no plan to work on Nouveau for the time being because the i915 and Radeon drivers are enough to keep me busy. However, we would welcome any contributions! People are asking about this on a regular basis, so please contact me if you are willing to work on this. Soon, we'll see Tux proudly holding a trident in the logo! :) (Don't get me wrong, I love the current logo) --=20 Jean-S=C3=A9bastien P=C3=A9dron --CprsmgWLEC1Qnaif5X2jTpniOn5tTkn9m Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJWOeR7XxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXQ2NzA4N0ZEMUFFQUUwRTEyREJDNkE2RjAz OUU5OTc2MUE1RkQ5NENDAAoJEDnpl2Gl/ZTMYGcP/3UoyjTPiKUS1n4u5MroOVP2 pUc3xSForBYCtclyMghWWVMtN4RkaHCh1C7UMcKyxEMKLVSsbbbPDk5oAvaz13sh DmuBya5H66buQZZfNIBHhclFpp7d+ZoOvVo+gIRLHZND92DIPR21XGHxL0x4Gnzt x2OUGOPyZleZ2UljSKIjt1Zfjy+Kgas2Co5Phx0JPAO9hP4JGi61qkyxldzAu2Ze IGQG7G6ccbBQh8ly+//AguKcFAC07P8b6vGBCzr2WqyiYsyoX3RY3TYKq7QpkLXv DySu9npqUmQLp+9u4XZR0Zaw4as4pE5/3KtXNxbdNq3HL0m0w0Fg40hVmz3ozZET ejCKBU8Ye+z1PKaEaLLrCqj3ew9PP+t0z3L4BSFwvNxqD16IQdvG3CO0wHaAAlw5 nmukbDGLcxneIbTN5Ql6DewBC1npk3awd7lYbcUuWYXB3nZ8EoilzDlbGMPTyfLD Pxri8ojgHKpGoQ+cSYCIehVJCWESL/05ZxdlQ4S4HcqMVZe1iaFlS+wa5/oXGsx/ CJgbGtaEJrx6N1YmaK064WvYsp+ApKb8XW3v+eUffbw6KvWp1UAjR+q97Fl11GU/ CSZpsHJCXF+PTyDaDRaF36J3DfYBIxoA4Cy79jCHCn7kY3atY09b07HscWSGycu8 m35+KnMSYY9LCArYh0x/ =5Ici -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --CprsmgWLEC1Qnaif5X2jTpniOn5tTkn9m-- --===============1484490525== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: inline X19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX18KTm91dmVhdSBt YWlsaW5nIGxpc3QKTm91dmVhdUBsaXN0cy5mcmVlZGVza3RvcC5vcmcKaHR0cDovL2xpc3RzLmZy ZWVkZXNrdG9wLm9yZy9tYWlsbWFuL2xpc3RpbmZvL25vdXZlYXUK --===============1484490525==--
