Now that we have competent Linux kernel graphics support, what comes next?

Abstract

Linux graphics support has turned the corner in the last couple of years, and we’re now trying to figure out where we go next. This presentation outlines a couple of possible scenarios and talks about how we move from the heavy-weight desktop-only infrastructure that we have today to a system that can scale across a wide range of hardware platforms and use cases.
