Description:   Opened: 2009-06-15 02:22 0000
Hi there,
I've just bought a new dell mini 12 and I can't get to make Xorg work with a
descent resolution and accelerated graphics.
After a few research online, it seems the PSB drivers are needed, both DRM and
Xorg drivers.

Could you guys work on xf86-video-psb and psb-kmd ebuilds? please....
it seems sources and firmwares can be found here:
- http://v1.moblin.org/build-results/projects/psb-kmd/lpia/
- http://v1.moblin.org/build-results/projects/xf86-video-psb/lpia/

thanks for your reactivity
julien



Reproducible: Always

hi,
it seems more up-to-date material can be found here:

https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mobile/+archive/ppa/+index?field.name_filter=psb&field.status_filter=published&field.series_filter=any

it seems only ubuntu developpers (Ubuntu Mobile Team) are active on this piece
of code now.
actually, the laptop was shipped with Ubuntu and working 3D graphics.

this might be the best starting point.

Hi there,
I don't want to be pushy here but I would appreciate if this bug report could
get a higher priority.
After some chats on the forums, it turns out I'm far from being the only gentoo
user with this laptop.

such a notebook without even 2D acceleration is close to useless.
this bug is actually blocking!

distros like Ubuntu, Fedora and Mandriva already support this driver-set...

please don't get offended by that post. I just want to use my favorite distro
on my laptop :)

good luck,
julien
