The GMA500 comment is very misleading, this is just a recipe for yet-another-ddx that only gets installed when you ask for it :) What the commit forgets to mention is that it's a ddx for any DRM based kernel display driver, I need it for beagleboard, beaglebone which don't use gma500 and also for fri2 which does use gma500. regards, Koen
