Could have fooled me. I see fbdev driver builds in current versions of Arch, Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, and openSUSE. What distro are you using that lacks it? > Question #1) Is it true that fbdev is deprecated and removed in > favour of DRM/DRI? Generally people would prefer that new video drivers use the drm driver infrastructure and not fbdev. In that sense fbdev is "deprecated", but not "removed", it's still there and works as well as it ever did. > Can I still compile it by my self? Is it worth doing in my case? You can, but again, I bet your distro has it built already. - ajax _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s
