o Have code to fetch the SymTabRec chipset list from a video driver.
|
||
|
|
This is mostly useful for the testing tool/interface, so that the
|
||
|
|
Cards file "uptodate" state can also be verified.
|
||
|
|
Probably it is better to forgot about the Cards file, and
|
||
|
|
either parse the output of scanpci, or link libscanpci.a
|
||
|
|
(and whatever else be required) in xorgcfg.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Check if a module is "certified", there was some talk about a
|
||
|
|
certification process in the past.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Rewrite mouse driver to use the same code as video drivers, so that
|
||
|
|
it is possible to store all available options in a single place.
|
||
|
|
This would also require rewriting all existing input device modules.
|
||
|
|
(Probably most of this can be made with cpp macros).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Create a protocol to allow 3rd part xorgcfg modules.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Write an interface for testing extensions/accel, maybe a frontend to
|
||
|
|
xdpyinfo, x11perf, glxinfo, etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Write a "wizard" mode, as several users find the graphical interface
|
||
|
|
too complicated, but find the text one easier to user.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Write code to use a Monitors database, either update the old Monitors
|
||
|
|
file or use RedHat MonitorsDB.
|
||
|
|
Chris Morgan is writting code to use MonitorsDB.
|
||
|
|
If xorgcfg could be changed to ddcprobe (in all supported platforms),
|
||
|
|
it would be even be a better solution than using a database.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
o Add interface to allow changing comments without the need of editing
|
||
|
|
config file with a text editor.
