Hm, I've hoped I could chicken out and to the non-limited thing for 3.6 ... as you say, it's a bit late to do such a change in after -rc5. So I guess the question is: How much does not having this patch break panels, i.e. can some mad vt-switching restore them or are they bricked for good until reset? -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter daniel.vetter at ffwll.ch - +41 (0) 79 364 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch
