Yes, the i915 driver now relies on fb code, though the new features are runtime optional. I may have noviced the Kconfig bits -- my intention was "If you select I915, you also get all the CONFIG_FB-related bits necessary". config DRM_I915 select FB_CFB_FILLRECT select FB_CFB_COPYAREA select FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT depends on FB tristate "i915 driver" I'm guessing that that "depends on FB" wants to be "select FB". --=20 Eric Anholt eric@anholt.net eric.anholt@intel.com --=-0rVThM0Ngy/h1F5bcZ0Y Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAklemh0ACgkQHUdvYGzw6vfV/wCfTfKyj3Cl/5ATYIwX4dbduwLx UhgAn3xYEX4pJi/B26exWo00Zdkz6h8Y =6ww8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-0rVThM0Ngy/h1F5bcZ0Y--
