Re: What to do with base X11 for netbsd-9 ?



Likewise, for the i82Q45-based machine under netbsd-8:

[274876.079] (--) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) Q45/Q43

[274876.129] (II) intel(0): SNA initialized with Eaglelake (gen4.5) backend

which works fine.

Under -current (8.99.42):

[   100.548] (--) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) Q45/Q43

[   100.618] (II) intel(0): SNA initialized with Eaglelake (gen4.5) backend

which doesn't work.


I suppose I could try the i82946GZ system as well, but it will probably
show the same thing (has same behavior.

Again, forcing the AccelMethod to "UXA" works around the problem, but
it seems clear that SNA used to work with these chips and now doesn't.


I think for my next update I'll switch to building the old intel (2014?)
driver on amd64 and see how that goes.
