No need to be sorry because, ...

I've done that, and for me it does not work, if I try to enable compute
support like this:

Then as soon as I do startx (which starts gnome-shell) the machine
freezes. This is with mesa-master with the above changes on top.

X / gnome-shell will happily work of I do not call nve4_screen_compute_setup()
but then test/trivial/compute fails with a null-ptr exception.

Do you perhaps have some extra patches in your tree, or am I just unlucky ?

I've tested this on both a 4.2 and a 4.4-rc3 kernel.

Regards,

Hans
