From d2f59357700487a8b944f4f7777d1e97cf5ea2ed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Thu, 5 Feb 2009 16:03:34 +0100 Subject: drm/i915: select framebuffer support automatically Migration helper. The i915 driver recently added a 'depends on FB' rule to its Kconfig entry - which silently turns off DRM_I915 if someone has a working config but no CONFIG_FB selected, and upgrades to the latest upstream kernel. Norbert Preining reported this problem: Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12599 Subject : dri /dev node disappeared with 2.6.29-rc1 So change it to "select FB", which auto-selects framebuffer support. This way the driver keeps working, regardless of whether FB was enabled before or not. Kconfig select's of interactive options can be problematic to dependencies and can cause build breakages - but in this case it's safe because it's a leaf entry with no dependencies of its own. ( There is some minor circular dependency fallout as FB_I810 and FB_INTEL also used 'depends on FB' constructs - update those to "select FB" too. ) Reported-by: Norbert Preining Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie --- drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'drivers/gpu/drm') diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig b/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig index 5130b72d593c..4be3acbaaf9a 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig @@ -70,7 +70,7 @@ config DRM_I915 select FB_CFB_FILLRECT select FB_CFB_COPYAREA select FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT - depends on FB + select FB tristate "i915 driver" help Choose this option if you have a system that has Intel 830M, 845G, -- cgit v1.2.3
