What about the following: DVI + VGA with shared ddc line. VGA connected and in use. User connects DVI port, gets hpd irq, detect called. hpd sense returns true, DVI is updated as connected, VGA is marked as disconnected. User then potentially loses the monitor they are currently using. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
