The answer to this is probably the same as the answer for any other xorg code you encounter without an explicit license. I answered this before in some detail for the I2C code in the server:
https://lists.x.org/archives/xorg/2019-March/059652.html The dummy driver has a similar history, we imported it when we forked from xfree86 and we (intentionally) forked from just before the change to XFree86 1.1 license. As a project we've assumed unlicensed contributions are made under MIT-like terms. If you want a stronger assurance than that, probably that's between you and your lawyers to work out. - ajax On Fri, Jan 21, 2022 at 1:13 AM Lan Horace <horace...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > @Adam > Do you have any comment for the license of dummy driver?
