This usage of "-" and "_" looks ugly, from a non-programmer POV.
If that's common understanding, it could be changed to dash always. The only thing that might be awkward about it is that it is a change.
I'd only change anything here if there are other changes anyway. Changing the _ to - or something alone is not worth the hassle.
Why do these names need numbers in them when there is only one of each sort?
I thought I had some logic in place that doesn't add numbers if there is only one. Guess I didn't do it right :-]
Sounds like we will have a change anyway.
Also, I think we have a consensus, that DVI-I and DVI-D don't need to be specifically named that way (DVI should be enough). I still would keep DVI-A, due to the awkwardness of this connector.
If I have a card with a DVI-I and a DVI-D port (and nothing else), naming them "DVI-I" and "DVI-D" could make sense to me...
I think we also agree on the need of a specific HDMI connector.
If it is a physical HDMI connector which can be detected as such (by the driver), definitely. -- Hans Ulrich Niedermann
