I'm not sure what you mean by the 2d vs 3d distinction. >I would like to ask if it would be possible to separate the fix for >refresh rate handling from the larger 3d patch, as we don't have the >time to work on the entire 3d patch (which is really two large >patches) and I'm not inclined to add that much possible instability to >our upcoming release. If you're referring to the changes I committed in November (which fix refresh rate handling amongst other things), then they're not easily separated out. I ended up rewriting significant parts of the 2D driver, including the mode handling. I don't have the time (or inclination) to go back to the old version of the driver. It's a can of worms, which is why I opted for the rewrite in the first place.
