-event for GeodeLinux.
-
-_____________________________________________________________________________
-Change: 78909
-_____________________________________________________________________________
-Patches for $ 'cross' compile. Gentoo and Debian store 32bit libraries in
-/lib32 and 64bit in /lib64. There are apparently two standards for this, but
-I'm patching gcc to follow Gentoo/Debian multilib convention. This is still
-giving a build failure in libstdc++-v3, however, pulling in multilib
-libraries.

-_____________________________________________________________________________
-Move to libtool 1.5.22. Appears to resolve some obscure cross-linking issues.
-klocwork.bbclass - mipsel analysis was failing due to $ definition from
-project name to build name. If AMD_DRIVER_VERSION is defined, prefix project
-name with amd_, otherwise oe_ Add task kwinstall for installing report files.
-Add .bb files for X11R7.0 75DPI fonts. Add font-bh-75dpi to task-xorg Add xf86-video-
-vga to task-org as a fallback. Add xauth to validation-image Update default
-xorg.conf. z4l has been renamed to ztv. Add Eye of Gnome image viewer to validation-
-image. This depends upon *alot* of gnome, so it should be replaced or gnome
-should take over matchbox as session manager.
-
-_____________________________________________________________________________
-Change: 80378
-_____________________________________________________________________________
-Mesa compiles using the correct compiler. Remove redundant files from glib-

-
-Linux Xorg AMD GeodeLX Processor Configuration Specification
-
-
-The AMD Geode driver supports an accelerated interface to the
-hardware access layer for the graphical devices (cimarron library).
-To operate this API with a widely, a set of operational customizations
-were added to the xorg.conf configuration file.  These specifications
-for the most part are passed unmodified to cimarron.  This document
-only provides an overview of the customizations to the standard
-configuration file definitions.
-
-The xorg configuration (xorg.conf) file usually exists in the system
-configuration directory /etc/X11.  The standard contents are documented
-in the manual pages, and can typically be accessed using:
-man XF86Config
-The file is divided into "sections".  The following information
-illustrates the custom features added section by section.
-
-
-1. Device section:
-
-The devices section specifies the graphics driver selection.  Currently,
-for the drivers that may be specified include:
 Section "Device"
-        Identifier  "DevId"
-        Driver      "vesa"   - or
-        Driver      "fbdev"  - or
-        Driver      "amd"
-...
-EndSection
-
-The "vesa" and "fbdev" selections are documented by the manual pages
-man fbdev   - or
-man vesa
-The "amd" driver has many selections that can be used to operate
-the interface configuration.  These selections follow:
-
-
-2. Hardware Accelerations:
-
-This set of options are standard to the xorg "xaa" accelerations.
-The presents of the option disables the named functionality.
-Note that many accelerations depend on combinations with others,
-and so disabling one may have a more pervasive effect.
-
-        Option "XaaNoCPUToScreenColorExpandFill"
-        Option "XaaNoColor8x8PatternFillRect"
-        Option "XaaNoColor8x8PatternFillTrap"
-        Option "XaaNoDashedBresenhamLine"
-        Option "XaaNoDashedTwoPointLine"
-        Option "XaaNoImageWriteRect"
-        Option "XaaNoMono8x8PatternFillRect"
-        Option "XaaNoMono8x8PatternFillTrap"
-        Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps"
-        Option "XaaNoPixmapCache"
-        Option "XaaNoScanlineCPUToScreenColorExpandFill"
-        Option "XaaNoScanlineImageWriteRect"
-        Option "XaaNoScreenToScreenColorExpandFill"
-        Option "XaaNoScreenToScreenCopy"
-        Option "XaaNoSolidBresenhamLine"
-        Option "XaaNoSolidFillRect"
-        Option "XaaNoSolidFillTrap"
-        Option "XaaNoSolidHorVertLine"
-        Option "XaaNoSolidTwoPointLine"
-
-Certain hardware accelerations may be armed or disarmed by using:
-
-        Option "HWcursor"    (default)  -or
-        Option "SWcursor" 
-
-        Option "Compression" (default)  -or
-        Option "No Compression"
-
-
-Additionally, all accelerations may be armed or disarmed using:
-
-        Option "Accel"       (default) -or
-        Option "No Accel"
-
-This option enables/disables all rendering accelerations, HW/SW cursor,
-and display compression.  Certain accelerations may not be armed, even
-though they are inferred by the configuration, if video memory is in
-short supply.
-
-
-3. Modes section:
-
-The configuration file included with the driver delivery contains an
-optional "modes" section.  This section asserts all of the standard
-graphics/video mode configuration data.  This set of modes is a subset
-of the mode data in the cimarron library.  Because these modes are
-included, they are passed to the cimarron driver for validation.  Be
-aware that cimarron will select modes using a filtering function that
-uses a constrained distance search.  The mode in cimarron's definitions
-that is "closest" to a mode defined - either builtin or user supplied -
-will normally be used by cimarron.  
-
-This filtering effect can be factored out by specifying:
-
-       Option "CustomMode"
-
-This has the effect of causing the mode validation to pass any mode
-in the mode pool, and allowing the selection of the specified mode
-during mode switch.  Unfortunately, because the interface specification
-is not complete enough to support video modes.  Only video modes that
-exist in cimarron are possible when selecting a TVOUT mode.
-
-
-4. More "Device" section Options:
-
-Since flat panels have fixed timing - that is, only one "real" mode -
-the mode switch operation that normally might select a wide variety
-of operational states must "adjust" the mode selection to fit the
-fixed panel timing.  To communicate that the mode selection is for
-a flat panel, use:
-       Option "FlatPanel"
-Note that the code expects that the flat panel will have been already
-selected by the BIOS setup.  Conflicts produce configuration errors.
-The size adjustment usually involves scaling the source buffer
-dimensions to the raster image size supported by the flat-panel.  The
-hardware supports this scaling operation transparently, and normally
-no special considerations are needed.  The hardware scaling is limited
-to modes with horizontal aspects of less than 1024 pixels (buffer size
-limitation for scaling/filtering).
-
-The display may be "rotated" in three ways, ClockWise, Upside-Down and
-CounterClocwise using:
-       Option "Rotate" "CW"
-       Option "Rotate" "Invert"
-       Option "Rotate" "CCW"  
-This is accomplished using a "shadow" frame buffer, and using either
-a hardware or software operation to transform the image to the
-operational display buffer.
-
-Even though there is not strategic advantage, if you wish to use a
-shadow frame buffer and display the unrotated image - this is specified
-by using:
-
-       Option "ShadowFB" 
-
-
-5. TVOUT video modes.
-
-In order to enable TVOUT mode selection, a TV known encoder
-must be selected in the following way:
-       Option "TV_Encoder" "ADV7171"   -or
-       Option "TV_Encoder" "SAA7127"   -or
-       Option "TV_Encoder" "FS454"     -or
-       Option "TV_Encoder" "ADV7300"
-There is no default for the encoder.  This selection is mandatory
-to enable TVOUT modes.
-
-Most encoders support a variety of bus formats.  Similarly, the
-amd driver can select the bus data format from the following list:
-       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "disabled"       - VOP output is disabled
-       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "vip1_1"         - VIP 1.1
-       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "ccir656"        - CCIR 656 output
-       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "vip20_8bit"     - 8-bit VIP 2.0 output
-       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "vip20_16bit"    - 16-bit VIP 2.0 output
-       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "601_yuv_8bit"   - 601 output, 8-bit YUV 4:2:2
-       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "601_yuv_16bit"  - 601 output, 16-bit YUV 4:2:2
-       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "601_rgb_8_8_8"  - 601 output, 24-bit RGB
-       Option "TV_Bus_Fmt" "601_yuv_4_4_4"  - 601 output, YUV 4:4:4
-Note that the "601" modes may need sync signals for correct operation.
-See the 601 flags below to operate these selections.
-
-Colorspace conversion requires a projective transformation to
-perform downsampling for the implied transformation.  The sampling
-method may be specified by selecting from:
-       Option "TV_Conversion" "cosited"
-       Option "TV_Conversion" "interspersed"
-       Option "TV_Conversion" "alternating"
-
-The TV standard selected normally specifies a known frame buffer/
-TV mode geometry.  However, it is quite common that TV output
-devices may expect a blanked  "overscan" area.  The dx,dy marginal
-widths for the overscan area can be specified using:
-        Option          "TV_Overscan" "40:30"
-Note that the TV standard geometry will be scaled (and filtered) to
-downscale the source buffer to destination raster image.
-
-TVOUT operation may be conditioned with the following set of flags.
-Some of these flags are not especially usable except to the kernel,
-but are included for completeness.
-
-These "TV_Flags" identifiers are specified in a quoted comma
-separated list from the following identifier set: 
- singlechipcompat - Enables SCx2xx compatibility mode..
- extendedsav      - Enables extended SAV/EAV codes.
- vbi              - Use the task bit to indicate VBI data.
- task             - Set Task Bit to 1in VIP 2.0 mode. Default is 0.
- swap_uv          - Swap the U and V data prior to output.
- swap_vbi         - Swap the VBI bytes prior to output.
-for example:
-       Option "TV_Flags" "swap_uv"  -or
-       Option "TV_Flags" "extendedsav:swap_uv"
-
-These "TV_601_Flags" identifiers are specified in a quoted comma
-separated list from the following identifier set: 
- inv_de_pol       - Invert the polarity of display enable
- inv_hs_pol       - Invert the polarity of hsync
- inv_vs_pol       - Invert the polarity of vsync
- vsync-4          - The VSync occurs 4 clocks earlier
- vsync-2          - The VSync occurs 2 clocks earlier
- vsync+0          - The VSync is not shifted at all
- vsync+2          - The Vsync occurs 2 clocks later
-for example:
-       Option "TV_601_Flags" "inv_vs_pol"
-
-These "TV_Vsync_Select" identifiers are specified in a quoted comma
-separated list from the following identifier set: 
- disabled         - VSync out disabled
- vg               - The VSync signal from the VG (video generator)

-6. Screen section:
-
-The screen section selects among the other various sections for
-sets of operational parameters and constraints.  A typical
-"Screen" section has the form:
-
-Section "Screen"
-    Identifier  "ScreenId"
-    Device      "Geode"
-    Monitor     "MonitorId"
-    DefaultDepth 24
-
-    SubSection "Display"
-        Depth           24
-        FbBpp           32
-        Modes          "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" "tv-ntsc" "tv-pal"
-    EndSubsection
-...
-
+	Identifier "AMD Geode"
+	Driver "amd"
+	Option "blah" "blah"
+	...
 EndSection
 
-In this example, the "Modes" selection of the display subsection specifies a
-list of available modes.  These modes are selectable using "Ctl-Alt-KpPlus" or
-"Ctl-Alt-KpMinus" on most PC keyboards.  It is also possible to select a mode
-using the xrandr utility, as well as using the X library API.
-
-The DefaultDepth may be 24, 16 or 8.  If the depth is 24, then the "FbBpp" line
-is needed to specify the frame buffer format as 32 bits (hardware limitation).
-If a custom mode is specified, care should be taken to be sure it does not
-collide with a "builtin" mode, since the builtin mode will supersede.
-
-For a more complete functional description, review that the cimarron
-reference and Geode LX processor functional specifications.

-_____________________________________________________________________________
-First stab at dvb-image. Everything compiles, but I am worried about DRI
-support in X, missing geode support in X, openGL support in qt-x11-free.
-Also, directFB may be a better direction; it is currently disabled in this
-mythtv build.
-
-_____________________________________________________________________________
-Change: 77965
-_____________________________________________________________________________
-Syncronize travis, sands, gcov, and simnow busybox configurations. Remove
-grep and tar from travis-db1200-2.6 and validation-image images. These are

-existing norwich.conf is that this samba configures an X11R7 build. xserver-xorg-X11R7.0-
-1.0.1 builds with this changelist but has not been tested. Additionally, the
-AMD driver checked into Perforce has not yet been built here.

-Dependencies 
-------------
-- Built with xorg-x11-6.7.0 from Fedora Core 2 Source Updates
-- Built with X11R6.8.1 from freedesktop.org
-                                                                                
-- This driver has been tested with Linux Kernel 2.6.11
-    using the Fedora Core 2 image environment
-    using the Gentoo 2005.0 image environment
-
-- To use the Xv adaptor interface
-   1) create a "videox" link to the geodev4l2 video device in /dev
-      ln -s video0 /dev/videox
-   2) uncomment the '  Load "z4l"' line in xorg.conf
-
-Functional Changes
-------------------
-Issue #4027
-
-Defects Corrected 
------------------
-PBZ#6538 - X.org patch is incompletely licensed
-PBZ#4027 - HWCursor/Rotation, cursor does not traverse entire resolution area
-Description:
-When using HWCursor, cursor can not traverse the entire visable area of *MOST* 
-(there are exceptions) rotated modes.  The failures exist as edges which the 
-cursor can not travel to.  Failing edges differ according to rotation.
-Resolution:
-Cursor "hotspot" error corrected.
-
-PBZ#4463 - 8 bpp, x11perf SWCRC --> HWCRC comparison fails paint8_03 ...
-PBZ#4665 - LX Xorg Driver will not patch successfully if GX Xorg Pat...
-PBZ#5025 - mode changes with xrandr, graphics distorted
-
-Known Errata 
-------------
-PBZ#4025 X - Rotations{90,270}, only lowest refresh rate pass mode validation
-Description: 
-At 90 and 270 degree rotations, only the lowest supported refresh
-rate can be entered.  The rest of the refresh rates appear to fail mode 
-validation (xrandr does not see them as options, and I can not CTL->ALT->+/- 
-through the modes).  This issue does not occur at 0 or 180 degree rotations.  
-Resolution: 
-This is an inherent weakness of the X mode switch -- where even a 
-full X R&R implementation would not fix this.
-Steps to address will need to be:
-(1) convert AMD rotation support to X R&R
-(2) patch X to better handle X R&R
-This may be addressed in a future version.

-PBZ#5993 - HWScaling mode hsync out of range error
