Hm, I thought the grand plan is to use -modesetting almost everywhere and forget about all the others?

Maybe if you mean s/grand plan/pipe dream/ ...

I said "almost everywhere", not "everywhere". I'm fully aware that there's tons of old chips that need dedicated drivers, and that amd wants to do some fancy stuff in their -pro version. But besides those I do see a fairly clear push towards having standardized/generic kms userspace, so don't really see that much value in updating all the vendor specific drivers. And outside of X the push is even stronger.

So no pipe dream at all, it's happening. -Daniel
