iBook2 video niggles
I'm almost completely out of problems with the iBook2 now, and what's
left are fairly small ones:
1) When X blanks the display, it doesn't turn the backlight off. My
current suspicions point at this line in the X startup output:
(WW) R128(0): Option "DPMS" is not used
A little searcing suggests this is a long standing problem with X only
doing DPMS when it is talking to a monitor, and having no way of
communicating the equivalent to a panel.
2) When I reduce the display resolution the display is reduced to the
top-left, and surrounded by garbage. I suspect the frame buffer driver
is missing something to enable the scaling hardware in the chip.
