[PATCH 00/12] viafb output device rework - part 2

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

this part of the patch series has finally a huge impact on the user
experience:

- A new/extended interface in proc allows enabling/disabling of output
  devices during runtime

- The device initialization time is significant shorter after reducing
  I2C timing values to a sane limit

- A regression is fixed that prevented detection of VT1636 chips and
  therefore broke the framebuffer in such configurations

But it contains also a lot of changes in the background that will
(hopefully) lead to a better future.

The complete patch series until now can also be found at
	git://github.com/schandinat/linux-2.6.git viafb-s3v1

As usual, some tests were performed on CLE266, VX800 and VX855.

Any opinions/suggestions?


Have fun,

Florian Tobias Schandinat
