This helps with the G3 PowerBook I tested, but we still don't ever seem to parse
the server's output and get the panel size right.

Note that the ATI driver doesn't recognise the 'UseFBDev' option, and silently ignores it. It _ought_ to recognise and honour it though -- as it doesn't cause any harm at the moment I suspect we should continue to give it. We should probably revamp the screen detection code when the DDC probe fails too -- if there's a framebuffer we can use the ioctls on /dev/fb0 to get our screen mode. Xautoconfig has an example of this. *** Bug 151380 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 155483 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** We try to do something along this line of thought now, but it's still not 100%. :/ |
