Linux Kernel Requirements for Mir¶
To run Mir with the default gbm-kms
platform you need a linux kernel with at
least:
Modules: i915, radeon and nouveau, to support the broadest range of common desktop/laptop hardware.
Version: Kernel version 3.11.0 or later, at least for radeon and nouveau to support fullscreen bypass correctly. Intel (i915) is known to work properly with even older kernels.
Additional patches: None at this time.
