I built xenocara myself and tried the new x86-video-r128 on a G4 Cube. I got a good surprise: the resolution in X went up from 1024x768 (the previous maximum in xrandr) to 1920x1080 (the true size of my display on the VGA port). In Xorg.0.log, the driver began to use EDID to detect the modes of my display. The Cube has 2 outputs: VGA port, and Apple Display Connector (ADC, which looks like DVI, but is too big to fit a DVI plug). I have no ADC display, so I only tried VGA. xrandr detected only VGA. I don't know whether the driver works with iMac's internal display. --George
