Re: RFC: separate 3dfx_linux module

I have unfortunately lost all of my voodoo hardware.

Hi there,

In the course of reviewing and cleaning up the default configuration
of kernel options, it was suggested by the Release Engineers that
we had a separate module for TDFX_LINUX instead of placing the
burden on the device tdfx and module 3dfx. Could anybody interested
test this change? I've made sure it builds, but I have no 3dfx hw
to really test it. The testing is as simple as building the new
3dfx and 3dfx_linux modules, loading them, and verifying that the
linux apps work with the device as before. Thanks in advance!


Sounds goo to me. I am all for further modularization of the codebase.


Why keep the TDFX_LINUX option defined in sys/conf/options?

Sounds good to me. In the event that you want to build this statically
into the kernel, doesn't the option still need to be available,
or are we talking about a device tdfxlinux ?
