• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) 2004-01-23 09:58:02 UTC]

Please test xfree-drm-4.3.0-r7.

[Comment 1 Lars Weiler (RETIRED) 2004-02-09 21:35:37 UTC]

Hmm, it's a bit problematic.  I don't have any 2.4-kernel on my iBook...

Could somebody else test it?

[Comment 2 David Holm (RETIRED) 2004-02-10 08:35:40 UTC]

Please check bug #40314 as I've posted my testing feedback on ppc there.

[Comment 3 David Holm (RETIRED) 2004-02-15 01:47:58 UTC]

Fixed broken patch and added to ~ppc.

patch failure with xfree-drm

[Comment 5 David Baehrens 2004-03-17 14:28:10 UTC]

With recent xfree-drm-4.3.0-r7 I get a patch failure similar to that described in bug #40314.

emerge info

[Comment 8 David Holm (RETIRED) 2004-03-18 23:45:17 UTC]

What is your VIDEO_CARDS set to?

[Comment 9 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) 2004-03-22 12:01:43 UTC]

David that's in USE of emerge info as video_cards_foo (mach64 in this case)

David, any news on this bug?

patch rejection #1

The patch fails because of three rejections which seem to refer to non-existing
code in the original files.

Sorry, four rejections instead of three. File names are:
#1 drmP.h.rej
#2 drm_agpsupport.h.rej
#3 r128_cce.c.rej
#4 radeon_cp.c.rej

xfree is not supported any more on ppc.  Closing this bug.

[Comment 16 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) 2004-10-31 15:26:44 UTC]

Irrelevant, this applies to any X implementation using DRI.

[Comment 17 Lars Weiler (RETIRED) 2004-10-31 16:15:19 UTC]

Okay.  But it depends on a 2.4 kernel, correct?  So, as we do not support 2.4-kernel any more on ppc, this package is probably only for those who didn't switched yet.

I can't test it, as the 2.4 kernel won't even build on my system (problems with gcc-3.4).

What should we do now?

[Comment 18 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) 2004-10-31 18:27:30 UTC]

Marked stable anyhow, by pvdabeel on 4 Oct.

Note that x11-drm-2004* and greater DO support 2.6 kernels.
