At least Option "PanelSize" would still be useful for systems where we can't determine the panel parameters yet. > - Add "DDCMode" option to detect and use DDC modes > - Add "PanelOff" option to disable panel on laptops > - Fix corrupted console problem > - Other misc fixes > (#A.1043, Hui Yu@ATI). > > I'd like get some feedback on how it works for others with both desktop > and laptop Radeons. Doesn't quite work on a Titanium PowerBook III (without Option "UseFBDev", with a 1280x854 modeline obtained by radeonfb via EDID which works fine with that option). There are flickering lines on the right side. Also, I think it would be nice if the radeon driver was better documented, in a manpage and/or programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/Options. I don't know what the Clone options are for even after a quick look through the code, how is an end user supposed to know? > I'll start working on the other patches that have been sent in shortly.
