Attached is a series on messages from dri-users, the DRI users' list. Basically the DRM modules in 4.1.0 are not in sync with 2.4.7. I haven't checked, I don't use the mentioned .debs. It would be helpful if someone can deny or confirm this, as it would create more trouble for users trying to setup the DRI on Debian. FWIW, the DRM interface is probably going to change at least once more after 4.1.0. -- Marcelo | Mrs Evadne Cake was a medium, verging on small. mmagallo@debian.org | -- (Terry Pratchett, Reaper Man)

If no, you might want to grab it from http://www.xfree86.org/~alanh I'm using Branden't pre1v5 debs here with a Matrox G400 and everything is smooth.

Do i need to do that? I thought the kernel DRM code is now in sync with X4. Nevertheless, i am giving the X4 DRM modules a shot now. -- Shanu -- ------------------------------------------( Shanu )----- Shanker Balan http://people.exocore.com/shanu God is silent.
