Hi,

So I've been growing more annoyed with the current layout of the drm
tree in the kernel,

a) it lives under char.
b) everything in one directory.
c) header files in one directory.
d) no header files exposed to userspace.

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6...

is a proposal to create drivers/gpu/drm, (I may move AGP in there as
well later). It also creates per-driver subdirs.

This to me solves the a-d problems.

There is also an out-of-tree kernel drm which I'll probably give some
more thought later.

Dave.
