MrEIso: airlied, 279e7c113ced4f2f4dcc14801aa3084698a417bd of drm makes linux use "unsigned int" for drm_handle_t
MrEIso: which gives lots of "assignment makes int from pointer of different size" warnings
MrEIso: which worries me (given I have a 64bit machine)
airlied: MrEIso: we shouldn't be making pointers from handles anymore..
airlied: MrEIso: can you pastebin the warnings?
MrEIso: yup
MrEIso: however
MrEIso: struct drm_map {
MrEIso: ...
MrEIso: void *handle; /**< User-space: "Handle" to pass to mmap() */
MrEIso: then line 927 of xf86drm.c
MrEIso: has
MrEIso: *handle = (drm_handle_t)map.handle;
MrEIso: http://pastebin.com/m3c1c6a29
airlied: ah crappy old interface, can't change it now, we just live with it.
airlied: we should probably do more casts to kill the warning.
MrEIso: so I'm just being paranoid?
airlied: yup.. its designed to work around the older crappy interface.
MrEIso: all the other warnings are similar?
airlied: yup, we could possibly fix em, but just have to make sure we don't make warnings on 32-bit instead..
MrEIso: yeah
MrEIso: ok, fair enough
MrEIso: I'm just trying to build an X server and radeonhd
MrEIso: and watching what happens along the way :)
Defense|Twin: Anyone knows something about the next release date?
egbert: ndim: about the 'pop art' bug: could you please ask the user to simply try to run 'xgamma' and see if this makes the problem go away?
egbert: ndim: if it does: we have a bug open on this issue.
ndim: egbert: Will do.
neosmatrix: hi @ all - does the RadeonHD driver support a HD4650 ?
cxo: barely
neosmatrix: I cannot even start X :(
neosmatrix: (EE) No devices detected. (xorg.0.log)
neosmatrix: radeonhd version 1.2.1 commit 761940fd from git
cxo: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amd_rv730_oss&num=1
cxo: http://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature
neosmatrix: last link is interesting. but i use 1 dvi + 1 hdmi, so i guess for now i should use the fglrx driver
ndim: egbert: Wrt to "pop art" bug where xgamma could help... do you mean https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466578 ?
