HI:
I have opened a bug about requesting an account on the
https://bugs.freedesktop.org and I know I have to wait the reply from the
administrators.

BTW, if I attach the whole new driver on the bugzilla or the diff version of
whole drivers, will that make the source codes check in sooner?

Appreciate your help,
cckuo

In the meantime, the easiest thing to do is to file a bug at
https://bugs.freedesktop.org and attach either a patch in diff form if
you are modifying the existing driver, or the entire driver if you have
created a new one.
