generic-kgi renaming request
GGIMesa's fbdev target piggybacks on top of LibGGI's fbdev target,
and so does GGIMesa's genkgi helper on top of LibGGI's genkgi helper.
The API names get a -mesa tacked on to them so that the piggybacking
process takes place automatically. Very nice, very clean.
There's only one problem: The LibGGI fbdev target uses
"generic-kgicon" as its API name to use when loading the genkgi helper.
However, unlike the LibGGI genkgi helper, the GGIMesa genkgi helper
implements card-specific acceleration APIs, and as such we get things like
tgt-fbdev-kgicon-generic-savage4-mesa
which is confusing, as "kgicon-generic" implies the use of the KGIcon
framework but no hardware accels. Can the fbdev API name for the genkgi
helper be changed to just "kgicon" so I can use
tgt-fbdev-kgicon-generic-mesa
tgt-fbdev-kgicon-savage4-mesa
? Not a big deal either way, just a matter of namespace cleanliness.
