I have a graphics device (intel 945GM) that has multiple outputs (4 in this case, although not all can be on at the same time). I want to use the graphics device directly through the fb, and not through some other layer such as X. When using the fb is it possible to tell the graphics device to change outputs through ioctls, or ideally through fbset?
The current intelfb driver does not support anything other than the DAC at the moment anyway. Work is in progress to support modesetting in the drm which will allow you to select outputs and crtcs.
