I would like to give it a try sure. Could you please point to me where I can find that driver? |

you can checkout the trident branch with the following command
| Code: | cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@dri.freedesktop.org:/cvs/dri co -r trident-0-0-2-branch xc
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@dri.freedesktop.org:/cvs/dri co -r trident-0-0-2-branch drm
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@dri.freedesktop.org:/cvs/dri co -r trident-0-0-2-branch Mesa |
i think you get a lot of stuff so beeing on broadband helps. if you know dri well you probably can checkout only needed directories. anyway i guess the driver is quite old and probably refuses to compile on newer kernels.. i guess you have to fix that youself then.
btw i just followed the instruction on the dri site.. i dont know which things you actually need |

Houlalaaa, sounds complicated... I am no guru, just a user. I just messed up with the /tmp directory which I wanted to move to another partition and now my user can't write files anymore in that directory so I had to change it to rwx for all!!!
I use the tridentfb driver and it works so I'll stick with it. But I am interested to know what sort of performance you will get with this cvs driver. |
