Hi all, here is a list of the possible tasks we have been discussing so
far regarding the graphics system for GTA02 and GTA03. In no particular
order:
- Move from Kdrive to xorg's X server architecture. Initially we might
support Xfbdev as the generic X server instead of a driver specific
(Xglamo or whatever) (WIP: juan)
- Change the kernel's drm system to be bus system agnostic. No need for
a PCI device/driver anymore. So for our platform_device it should work
correctly. (WIP: jorge)
- Build a glamo_drm driver
- Build a X driver for Glamo, initially it wont support any extension,
just the core driver
- Add support for EXA on the driver, hw accelerated functions
- Develop a Mesa's EGL driver
- Add support for X's video extensions (Xvmc and Xvideo), maybe support
VA-API too.
- Add support for EGL on Evas
- Add support for KMS (kernel mode setting). Remove/merge/make
compatible the Glamo framebuffer driver and the KMS interface
Several points are GTA02 specific, but will be helpful for GTA03 too.
