Hence Xorg is broken on all embedded devices with a frame buffer driver that supports a single fixed video mode only?No. As discussed before, you're probably missing http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=c095da04fe7c73b6503ef5b93549b13796c51b22 which is in the upcoming xserver 1.5 release.Ah, upcoming. That's not current/previous/... ;-)
Yeah, it might have been nice to backport this to the 1.4 branch, but it's kind of too late now. Of course, you can always bug your distributor to backport it. :) -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://tungstengraphics.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Linux-fbdev-devel mailing list Linux-fbdev-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-fbdev-devel
