[Dri-users] /dev/drm?

[Khamba S. <pu...@ed...>]

Hi,

Can anyone tell me just what the /dev/drm device does and what
the device major and minor numbers are? I'm having problems with
dri in 4.0.1 (Blender) and found out I (probably?) need a
/dev/drm device..

Somewhere, I read this device is automatically created, but it's
not on my system (FreeBSD 4.1, G400). Am I doing something wrong?

My XF86Config has all nessecary parts in it (Load "glx" , Load "dri"
and the "DRI" section with permissions), at least that's what
I read in the docs (I saw some people including Load "GLcore" but
why?).

I've got a /dev/dri/card0 (created by the system itself), the
agp, drm and mga drivers are loaded correctly etc.. 
drm seems to use the /dev/drm ; when I tried linking /dev/drm
to /dev/dri/card0 , the system crashed :)

Kind regards,
