 i believe koz pointed it out but i compiled up the xf86-video-driver-fbturbo
 successfully, which uses the 2D acceleration available with the A20 (G2D).
 i then reported that to the parabola developers... and i was really
 pleasantly surprised when one of them packaged it up within a couple of
 days!

 so the 2D accelerated sunxi xorg driver is now a standard part of
 Parabola-ARM GNU/Linux-libre.  you *don't* end up with heavy CPU load
 due to "simple framebuffer".
