Hi Kevin,

   I just gave a try on my VX900 board. The KMS is working fine and Xorg.0.log
looks good with your proposal below:
-----------------------------------------------------------
        if ((dev_priv->engine_type <= VIA_ENG_H2) ||
            (dev->agp && drm_pci_device_is_agp(dev))) {
-----------------------------------------------------------
   Now that you have verified old H1/H2 chip and VX800 which is based on H5, I
do think we can commit this change to kernel.
   For the first commit, I see your suggestion on comment #31, I think for the
first patch, I agree with that you do the commit with my name included. And I
prefer to know how to get the commit privilege for next step for future commits
in drm/ddx, so can you help me on that? Yup, I have seen some discussion
between you and other committer on how to do it, but if you can send me a
README for a more regular way to do a commit, it should be great.

Thanks,
Frank
