Hello,
according to the discussion in the following Phoronix forum thread:
https://www.phoronix.com/forums/forum/phoronix/latest-phoronix-articles/863332-intel-s-unreleased-3-0-x-org-driver-gets-more-fixes-for-dri3-present
the generic xf86-video-modesetting DDX driver included in xorg-server seems to
be better than most vendor specific xf86-video- drivers.
I am wondering:
Then why not ditch xf86-video-nouveau in favor of xf86-video-modesetting?
Regards
