Enumerating available display modes?

From: Kendall Bennett <hidden>

Hi Again,

In working with the framebuffer console interface, it does not appear to 
support enumerating what display modes are available to be set via the 
/dev/fb interface. Am I right in thinking this, or am I missing something 
in the API? I am going to take a look at the source code, but some high 
level programming information would be well received at this end ;-)

Also I can't seem to find any code related to acceleration via /dev/fb. 
Is this not possible for user land apps to call the acceleration 
functions in /dev/fb? I guess I can check the XFree86 module to see how 
it does it....

Regards,
