- Add voffset option to avoid conficts with Xorg i810 driver
Please provide more info.

- How does it "avoid conflicts"?

- How is the user to know that he needs to provide this module parameter?

- Is it not possible to prevent these "conflicts" without the use of a
  module parameter?


IOW: it's really a cop-out to require that the user know about some obscure
module parameter to be able to amke their system work correctly.  We
really, really want these things to "just work".
