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. --=20 Jon Smirl jonsmirl@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
