Subject: Three new features for fbdev
Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2005 15:35:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9e47339105060612352d15c20b@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

If anyone is interested in working on these topics I can use some help.
Three main features I still need from fbdev:

1) Trigger a user space app to reset a secondary card on boot. I have
this working but not in a shippable state. It needs kernel fixes in
hotplug to trigger the app properly. The app needs debugging to work
right with emu86.

2) User space mode list generation. I have code for this too. It needs
fixes in hotplug to allow subdir creation in /sys/class/xxx. The user
space mode app can read files from /etc to name the modes, adjust for
broken EDID, supply mode list for non-EDID monitor, etc.

3) Hardware cursor support.
