Hi guys,

Oliver McFadden tried to run modern libdrm/mesa on a 2.6.32 kernel,
and I'm guessing this commit broke things.

Can you either stop things working earlier or fix it, since
drm_intel_bo_mrb_exec seems to required the execbuffer2 ioctl.

Dave.

Hi,

I'm now subscribed to the list, so there isn't any critical need to keep
me in CC unless the traffic is high.

Yes, I should be running a newer kernel, but IMHO the driver should also
output an error message, rather than just exit(1); this isn't very
intuitive for the user.

Perhaps it would be nice to have proper API/ABI breaks, too...
