The key benefit is that this Geode driver can +finally build on FreeBSD and on other platforms not offering V4L2 support and +that it can also build on a 64-bit host using its 32-bit personality. + +Support for the Video Input Port (VIP) feature of the Geode LX found in 'ztv' +is now documented and the source code saw the removal of deprecated Linux 2.4 +backward compatibility code. Compiling is skipped on platforms without V4L2. + +Configuration for laptops featuring WXGA resolutions is finally documented. + +Setting the GEODE_TRACE_FALL macro now enables composite operation tracing on +this driver. This can be used to profile the performance during development. + +Fixes to keep this driver compilable on recent X servers are also included. + +VALIDATION PLATFORMS +* Debian/stable (X server 1.7.7) on Artec DBE61 and Hercules EC-800. +* Ubuntu/Precise (X server 1.10.4) on FIC ION603A. + +Geode 2.11.12 (2011-02-13) +========================== +This release drops the "linux/videodev.h" include in z4l.c because +V4L1 support was dropped as of Linux kernel 2.6.38, and it fixes +packed overlay offscreen allocations. + +Geode 2.11.10 (2010-11-09) +========================== +This release migrates deprecated xalloc/xrealloc/xfree/xcalloc calls +to malloc/realloc/free/calloc, fixes several DCON-specific issues, +improves mode validation and adds support for one WXGA resolution. + +Geode 2.11.11 (2010-12-27) +========================== +This release restores code compatibility down to X server 1.4, it fixes +compilation under 1.9.99 and newer, and it improves handling of gamma +correction in video vs graphics + Geode 2.11.9 (2010-08-23) ========================= We are pleased to announce this maintenance release of xf86-video-geode. |
