xserver-xorg-video-omapfb is using the omapfb kernel interface, it's a slighly advanced omap specific version of xserver-xorg-video-fbdev (which also works on omap). xserver-xorg-video-omap3 is omapfb, but with enabled NEON instruction set during compilation. It has been introduced before armhf existed. None of these support KMS, XRandR or EXA. On x86 you can compare them with xserver-xorg-video-vesa. The new driver supports KMS, XRandR, EXA & 3D (but needs a non-free plugin for some of these tasks, like 3D). -- Sebastian
