Adding Erik and Thierry, who probably know a lot more about this.
AFAIK Tegra2/3 used an ISA more akin to the NV30/NV40 family, but probably not similar enough to just reuse nouveau's nvfx_vert/frag stuff wholesale.
Are you interested in helping along, or were you just trying to figure out if it was in a usable state right now?

Hi,
I think am trying to get DRI OpenGL ES 2 working on a Tegra 3 device. Specifically, I want to be able to render GLES to the screen without having to use X. I want to use up the whole screen, in other word, I do not need any form of windows or a desktop environment. I have done a lot of reading and have found that this process is supposedly called DRI. I have read that a lot of work has been done on creating an open-source driver for the pre-K1 Tegras like the 3. As far as I understand a DRM driver is crucial for this and the latest Linux kernel seems to include this driver. I have managed to build the kernel with it and it seems to be running just fine on my board. Furthermore I have managed to compile libDRM with ‘experimental’ Tegra support. My problem now is that it does not appear as if though Mesa has a driver for the Tegra, am I correct? I have found the https://github.com/grate-driver/mesa fork that supposedly does but it is rather old and does not seem to be maintained anymore. I have not tried compiling it yet but from the commits it does not look as if though it ever really worked properly. My question now is what do I now, give up? Also, what is the purpose of all the DRI components except Mesa being ported to the Tegra, does that help in any way?
