Ok. What is needed for Hurd to have drm infrastructure, kernel
support? 

Another question: libgbm1 now builds, and many packages build-depends
on libgbm-dev (and maybe other packages not yet available): mpv,
directfdb, virglrender, ukvm, kmscube, etc. Are they also unusable
if/when built?

Is there any idea to work on mesa/drm for Hurd at all??

Thanks!
