I remember Jon Smirl having made EGL work on r200 two years ago. Is EGL dead now? Is miniglx the preferred way of getting OpenGL without X again? Philipp |

Anyway lately work are underway to give drm proper memory management and in kernel video modesetting which in the end make a lot easier to properly implement EGL, that's my opinion :). Until more work are put in egl i guess miniglx is the working option but if you are willing to code a bit i think one can make egl to work with the modesetting drm branch. best, Jerome Glisse |
