Yep, I don't think so. In any case, all this is to be deprecated, and as

How close is that?  Is it worth experimenting yet?  Is there an xorg driver
available?  Maybe a wiki page telling me how to set it up?

So of course we need to keep omapfb working for the years to come, but
I'd rather not add any new sysfs files for a soon deprecated driver.
