Re: [PATCH, RFC] stop neutering DRI

The attached patch makes anaconda stop neutering DRI/DRM (at least it should.)
It does it by including the DRI userspace modules (from mesa) and the kernel
DRM drivers.

Why do this?

To be more like the 'normal' installed system. Heck, if DRI's going to fail,
the system's just going to blow up on the first boot anyway. Furthermore,
there are cards/chips that do 2D accel via the 3D pipeline.

G'day Bill.

Isn't Anaconda big enough and slow enough yet? Last time I did an upgrade (as compared with an install) it ran for a good 12 hours.

If it's not essential for getting the install/upgrade done, _this_ user doesn't want it.
