Maybe something like this: video -- empty except for Kconfig file video/console -- generic fbconsole code video/DRM -- generic DRM code video/ati -- ati drivers (drm & fb) video/i810 -- i810 drivers (drm & fb) etc..... This would allow the merging of the DRM and FB hardware device drivers over time. Switching VTs should be coordinated with saving 3D state. Even with out merging DRM should the console driver be split out from the hardware drivers? ===== Jon Smirl jonsmirl@yahoo.com __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
