Description Khem Raj 2012-05-01 17:19:58 UTC 
currently only qemux86 and qemux86-64 use xorg-xserver and all other use xorg-kdrive we should use same across all qemu machines
Comment 1 Richard Purdie 2012-05-02 15:00:40 UTC 
I'd go further, we should drop kdrive in favour of the xorg xserver.
Comment 2 Ross Burton 2012-05-28 18:41:11 UTC 
I'm all in favour of having a single X server instead of just one.  Are there any platforms that only support kdrive-based X servers?
Comment 3 Richard Purdie 2012-05-30 10:32:36 UTC 
Nothing we support as far as I know. All the platforms we have are using kdrive's framebuffer driver...
Comment 4 Ross Burton 2012-09-03 12:30:31 UTC 
Removed kdrive in poky, as of 175ba20246fa3889f409d1b4e7f828897867b70e.
