- Stefan, almost all x11 drivers check their option and decide whether
it makes sense to use it or not. Very often they make wrong assumptions
and shouldn't be that intelligent but for fbdev it really would be easy
to know that underlaying framebuffer layer cannot handle the color map
allocated by the specified option. I would think this would be an useful
enhancement for the driver itself
Anyway I made a patch for the x11 module because in principal you both are
right. The patch will be applied to the head branch of the x11 module.
Should this patch go into 10.2 ? It's a bigger patch as you can see.
Andreas please comment ?
