Hi Greg,
Unfortunate hardware owners of Intel Atom's Cedar Trail platforms (like Atom N2600/N2800) like myself have been relying on the excellent work of thomas001 on the cedarview-drm kernel driver, https://github.com/thomas001/cedarview- drm, to enable the use of the cedarview_gfx module and its proprietary, accelerated userspace xorg driver pvr, with later kernel releases.
Unfortunately, the 3.10 kernel release brought about some major changes in include/linux/proc_fs.h that prevent the successful compilation of the cedarview_gfx kernel module, as reported here https://github.com/thomas001/cedarview-drm/issues/1 .
Can you suggest how one proceeds from here? Intel cannot be relied upon to update the driver package, even at least the open-source cedarview-drm source package, for this hardware.
