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.
