https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67051 --- Comment #89 from Alex --- Hi Ilia, As promised: (> my hdminva3.patch should already be part of 3.11, so I'm surprised you didn't get a conflict of some sort when applying it.) These are the steps I did then and reproduced now to answer your question. (Note: today, the git state machine is right after the debug-3 failure on 88e9e3d2deacc460fbb8a4691140318f6e85e6891) [~/linux]$ git checkout master ; echo $? error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout: drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/core/engine/disp/hdminv84.c drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/core/engine/disp/hdminva3.c drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/core/engine/disp/sornv50.c Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can switch branches.

I agree, I should've mentioned this detail. Hope it helps. -- Alex -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
