[Linux-fbdev-devel] video dir reorg

[Jon S. <jon...@ya...>]

Does it make sense to try merging the DRM drivers into
the video directory? Maybe something like this:

video -- empty except for Kconfig file
video/console -- generic fbconsole code
video/DRM -- generic DRM code
video/ati -- ati drivers (drm & fb)
video/i810 -- i810 drivers (drm & fb)
etc.....

This would allow the merging of the DRM and FB
hardware device drivers over time. Switching VTs
should be coordinated with saving 3D state.

Even with out merging DRM should the console driver be
split out from the hardware drivers?
