Subject: [rfc] VIA drm patch and bk tree for inclusion in kernel..


Hi,
Okay the VIA DRM people have asked to include it in the kernel, it
only allows accelerated XvMC for non-root users, and 3d for root users
(the 3d paths are still not secure)...

The bk tree at

bk://drm.bkbits.net/drm-via

the patch against Linus latest (along with some cleanup patches...)

is at (it is quite big...)

http://www.skynet.ie/~airlied/patches/dri/via_unichrome_patch.diff

Can VIA people test this tree for me? either use bk or grab Linus latest
and apply the patch...

Dave.

Works as expected with Linus latest.
