Hmmm, so basically, if one could switch the display at runtime... This cannot be done anymore... This sounds like feature removal, no? I know several of our clients who used this feature (at least for evaluation purposes). Is there any strong pros you obtain while removing this feature? > > So the ifdeffery is not very nice.

And what will change with full DT support? Will we be able to define several displays through DT and select and active one during runtime? -- Regards, Igor.
