I discovered that "xrandr -o 3" doesn't work, because of the omapfb
driver not supporting RANDR.
Then a bit of research discovered
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2011/09/msg00095.html
- Sebastian Reichel's intent to package the alternate "omap" driver
and
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=OTg3MA
- a blog about TI releasing the code behind that omap driver.
What I'm not clear about, though, is whether these latest pieces of
news mean that the omap driver will still require some binary blobs
somewhere; or if the kernel and driver code will be fully free. Can
anyone clarify that?
Thanks,
Neil
