I'll bump all those priorities up one.
low Very trivial items that have defaults that will
work in the vast majority of cases; only control
freaks see these.
medium Normal items that have reasonable defaults.
high Items that don't have a reasonable default.
Given that UseFBDev just plain doesn't work sometimes (it does not work
in the "vast majority" of cases), the lowest priority we can hope for is
medium.
However, I intend to continue my recent policy of capping the question
priority at medium if there's already a configuration on the system.
We'll also need to take these special cases into account:
case "$FB_TYPE" in
OFfb|VESA)
# generic framebuffer that doesn't support UseFBDev
;;
(The case is empty because the default is to not use UseFBDev.)
Anyway, thanks for the pseudocode.
