Hi

Would anyone be interested in an Mesa/EGL driver for vt?

If we had this we could run wayland/egl-based compositors with llvmpipe on
platforms without GPU support similar to X+scfb driver. (if my
understanding of the graphics stack if correct..)

If similar to the (now deprecated) Linux framebuffer driver in Mesa I guess
it would not be that much work that has to be done. mesa/llvmpipe would do
all the heavy lifting, correct?

This would enable a whole lot of new exciting possibilities and solve the
problem with lack of GPU drivers..

What do you think?
