[Intel-gfx] Reason for discontinuing support for Glamor

[Yu, Chan KitX]

I'm afraid I made an error of judgement here http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2014-September/044066.html . I therefore apologize for that.

However, when I tried to add glamor support by passing --enable-glamor to configure, it doesn't recognize such option.

xf86-video-intel: configure was passed unrecognised options: --enable-glamor [unknown-configure-option]

I'm using xf86-video-intel version 2.99.917.

Subject: Reason for discontinuing support for Glamor

Greetings folks,

I noticed that the Intel driver has removed support for Glamor http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2014-September/044068.html . May I know the rationale behind this move? I can see that Glamor itself has not been updated for a year which raises the question if it is discontinued, but I'm not sure if that's one of many reason Glamor support was removed.

Regards,
Chan-Kit
