I agree with this, minus renaming. This is CVS, you don't rename, sorry. The names aren't that bad, though. I've made some progress on converting BSD, but when I got to the linux code added to the shared radeon driver code, I lost motivation. Hopefully I'll get back to it soon, but it's pretty frustrating to work on. -- Eric Anholt [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Sybase ASE Linux Express Edition - download now for FREE LinuxWorld Reader's Choice Award Winner for best database on Linux. http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_id=5588&alloc_id=12065&op=click -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
