Subject: [PATCH 0/6] viafb modesetting update 2

Hi all,

this is the second patch series. It's a little less stable than the 
previous one but it contains some great internal improvements.
We do no longer rely on the modetable structure across all sections 
and we use the values in var directly for CRT and DVI when possible. 
Basically this enables us to allow arbitary modes passed in var. 
That's not implemented yet and probably will never be the default as 
we want to do some sanity checking in check_var for the devices 
connected but would allow overriding buggy information.
Anyway with these patches it will be very simple to avoid the buggy 
modetable we use at the moment.


Best regards,

Florian Tobias Schandinat
