XFree86 driver feature requests really should be made directly to XFree86.org, whom maintain the video drivers. While I do make enhancements occasionally as well, they are a lower priority thing that is done more in my personal time as a volunteer. I also do not have any DVI display hardware currently, so I'll be unable to implement such a request at this time. I'm defering this for the future, however you should also make this request directly to XFree86.org as I've mentioned above, which will increase the likelyhood of it being implemented anytime soon. I just implemented DPMS support for the Radeon driver for LCD and DFP display panels. It has been tested by one user who claims it works great for him and confirms his CRT DPMS still works as well. * Fri Feb 21 2003 Mike A. Harris <mharris> 4.2.99.902-20030220.2 - Implemented XFree86-4.2.99.902-ati-radeon-dpms-on-dvi.patch for DPMS on LCD/DFP panels on Radeon driver (#80629) Please test this out with CRT, LCD and anything else you can throw at it. Test it in all DPMS modes please, as I do not have any LCD/DFP hardware, so I can't test that functionality myself. I'd like to get as many confirmations from users as possible that it works for them and does not regress the driver at all. Setting to MODIFIED. If problems occur with DPMS, please change back to ASSIGNED. If it works great, please close as RAWHIDE. I just implemented DPMS support for the Radeon driver for LCD and DFP display panels.

These packages will be available for download tomorrow, however if you would like to test it in the mean time, upgrade to the latest rawhide XFree86 that is available, and then drop the following Radeon driver over top of the one that comes with X: ftp://people.redhat.com/mharris/test-drivers/radeon_drv.o Then to test DPMS: xset dpms force standby xset dpms force suspend xset dpms force off This should work on CRT or LCD/DFP, or dualhead with any combination. Enjoy. |
