by red hat at the time of that post. So approximately 2 years ago at
least one redhatter, who was working with Xorg upstream development
was thinking hard about this problem. This is noteworthy and
significant concerning the history of developing a solution in the
problem space. Again I'll point out that Mike references the same inf
parsing script that Adam referenced.
Correction.... I should have said:
the thread from which your url comes from.
I've inadvertently confused things with my mis-statement.
Start reading the thread from:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/pipermail/xorg/2005-October/010706.html
and that should provide enough context. Though you are free to read
all of the thread
starting at:
