drm_intel_bo for the KMS framebuffer with IvyBridge?

[Segovia, Benjamin]

Yes, I imagine this is not exactly using the API by the book :) but this is really to play with the HW not to write a real application. Can you give me the complete link to the file? I am not finding it in libdrm source. I guess it is somewhere else.
Thanks!
Ben

Not recommended, but there is code in the ddx to get the handle for
the framebufffer so we can copy it at X startup.

Its in intel_display.c.
