But you could put it in the the common directory as a set of helper functions or something such, which only need to be called by the drivers ? And the ddx driver would need to be able to program the video outputs anyway, and what else is really needed ? The Xinerama hinting stuff ? The RandR like dynamic configuration ? What i think is most important is that a common configuration options or something such be defined, before every driver go at it in its own way.
