Enhanced wsdisplay support for NetBSD (!7) · Merge requests · xorg / driver / xf86-video-r128 · GitLab

Due to an influx of spam, we have had to impose restrictions on new accounts. Please see this wiki page for instructions on how to get full permissions. Sorry for the inconvenience.

GitLab will be down for maintenance Monday June 03, from approx 10am UTC for roughly 48 hours. This is for a major gitlab upgrade which requires a DB migration. See the tracker issue for more informations.

nia requested to merge nia/xf86-video-r128:wsdisplay into master May 05, 2024

Alternative non-BIOS method to determine the panel size for NetBSD. With this we no longer need to specify PanelWidth and PanelHeight in xorg.conf on non-x86 platforms.
Don't assume VGA output on non-x86, assume that mobility chipsets have a LVDS output when there's no BIOS information.
Backlight control and console detection for wsdisplay systems.

Patches all adapted from work by Michael Lorenz.
