Note: With OGA, LVDS is pretty much a requirement, given its embedded systems target. Given that, we really need to have it on OGD properly, even if it's an optional connector. One reason we haven't emphasized it is that I have expected to produce OGD with some features missing and then later, produce OGD-like prototypes to deal with those added features, some low volume items. To put it another way, OGD is kinda being designed for the purpose to make money and test core features more than it is being designed to help us test _every_ feature that OGA will need. When we need to test other features, we'll have gotten the money to produce OGD variants that can be given to a limited number of testers. How many of you have an LVDS monitor, like a display ripped out of a laptop, to play around with? _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
