similar to: DRM and the Nouveau kernel tree

Hi Thomas, I meant to ask you this 24h ago: why did you deliberately break Nouveau in drm.git? The commit 9a33f62be1c478334572ea9384af60 "drm: Strip old ttm." not only removes the old TTM, it explicitly removes Nouveau from Makefile. IMHO this means you knew it broke Nouveau and you did not care. And there is no explanation in the commit as to why. Did you ask any Nouveau developer if

Hi, I've been using nouveau driveau for 8 months or so, using automated build from drm git, xf86-video-nouveau git and even sometimes mesa drm git and discovered the linux-core build did not build the nouveau driver the hard way: X was refusing to start as the nouveau.ko modules was not loaded nor build. Build process did chnage without obvious way to know womething was wrong. Then I tried

Hi, I would like to abandon the master-compat branch nouveau/linux-2.6 kernel tree. The difference to master branch is practically just the out-of-tree build Makefile. I'll find a new place for the Makefile and docs, likely in the wiki. Then I will break the build in master-compat, so that everyone surely notices it is not updated anymore. The reason for this is to reduce confusion, and that

As a part of updating Ubuntu's nouveau package, I've been figuring exactly how to build nouveau.ko from cgit.freedesktop.org/nouveau/linux-2.6 A first and trivial pass at this is attached. It doesn't do any interesting kernel configuration checking; it just sets the right include paths and calls out to make. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was

Hi guys, it's been a year since my last call (below) for updating translations. Unless anyone objects, I propose, that all translation pages are eligible for removal if they have not been properly updated within two weeks since the original page was updated. TiNDCs are an exception, they are not live content, and they should be up-to-date anyway, by definition. mwk already did some good

A cleanup of nouveau_dma_wait(): extract a sub-function and eliminate two variables to improve readability. No functional changes.

Hi, the master-compat branch in nouveau/linux-2.6 kernel tree has got a little bit out of hand. Distributions are packaging that, and I cannot know if they warn their users well enough about the hazards of using backported DRM (see: http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/UpstreamKernelIssues ). I originally intended master-compat as an easy way of installing the Nouveau flavour of DRM modules even

Introduce accessors for TTM buffer object memory that has been mapped into the kernel virtual address space or as IO memory. IO memory needs to be accessed via special accessor functions, not by dereferencing the iomem cookie. The wrappers hide the details of 32-bit access and honour the TTM map type. nv04_crtc_cursor_set() is changed to use the new wrappers. 'cursor' is received from

Just a heads up that there's a Linux kernel tree up at git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/nouveau/linux-2.6 which (after discussion in #nouveau) is where development of the Nouveau drm will continue. In the newttm-devel branch is the latest work towards using the re-worked TTM memory manager that will likely appear in a future upstream kernel. The major differences between the drm in the

Noticed by sparse: in nouveau_dp_link_train(), the array 'status' was defined as 2 bytes, yet it was accessed for 3 bytes. Fix it by making the array size 3.

Hi all, it seems that the translations in the Nouveau wiki have been rotting for some time. Many translated pages even have a note saying they are not up to date, which makes me think they are not going to be updated anymore at all. I am planning to remove all translation links from FrontPage and FAQ. I will not remove the pages themselves. If someone wants to come back and actually maintain a
