This is not available anymore. Can you please attach the latest repo tarball to
this ticket?

I have two still widely used US-made POS machines with this Geode LX chip.
At least one of them actually makes use of the multiplexed DDC/UART2 gpio line
for the serial connected touchscreen. Can we have a way to use both DDC control
and UART2? E.g. switching to DDC only momentarily while initializing the Geode
video and allow the UART2 most of the time?

The DDC probing issue was filed as a separate bug. Please comment on it there,
not here.

Someone had started developing a KMS driver for the Geode LX:

https://gitorious.org/lx

This would at least cover the OLPC XO-1 and a fairly large number of recent
thin client terminals, but it would obviously leave the GX1 and GX2 hardware in
the dust.
