Hi all
I'm just about to build the xorg-server drivers and noticed that the vesa
driver has gone from the book. I'm not an expert in xorg and I could
successfully start my xserver using the fbdev driver in my qemu vm that I
started with vga=std. However, the current vesa driver
xf86-video-vesa-2.4.0.tar.gz builds and runs fine with current lfs/blfs.
Is there a reason that it got dropped, maybe like there be no actual
hardware or virtual environment requring it?
We archived the vesa driver three years ago. At the time, the vesa driver
was causing the xorg-server to hang. You are the first to mention that it
is no longer there since then.
