Description Ross Burton 2015-04-02 16:24:15 UTC
The xserver has its own modesetting driver so we should ensure that our xserver enables that, remove xf86-video-modesettings, and add a RPROVIDES to xserver for xf86-video-modesetting.
Comment 1 Ross Burton 2015-04-02 16:31:28 UTC
Not sure what version of xserver the integrated one was recommended in, but we should probably upgrade to 1.17 before doing this.
Comment 2 Ross Burton 2015-07-23 10:48:34 UTC
Done in oe-core 950846d019ffac21909a96d90af8cf7e5bdd5738.
