Yakui, I think what we really want here is to split the SDVO code (at the very least) into an encoder/connector scheme like radeon uses. Most of the Intel outputs have paired encoder/connectors (e.g. LVDS, TV, VGA) but SDVO doesn't, so we should split it out. The fact that it's still treated as a single blob is historical, dating back from the big rework Dave did to properly split encoders from connectors. -- Jesse Barnes, Intel Open Source Technology Center ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list Dri-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
