How do I use the fbdev driver?

The fbdev driver can pick up the currently used video mode from the framebuffer driver and will use it if there are no video modes configured. For PCI boards you might have to add a BusID line to the Device section. See above for a sample line. The following driver Options are supported: The framebuffer device to use. Default: /dev/fb0.

What is xvxv_CRTC and how does it work?

XV_CRTC is used to control which display controller (crtc) the textured adapter synchronizes the screen update with when XV_VSYNC is enabled. The default, ‘auto’ (-1), will sync to the display controller that more of the video is on; when this is ambiguous, the display controller associated with the RandR primary output is preferred.

How to assign XRandR outputs LVDS and vga-0 to the driver?

For example: Option “ZaphodHeads” “LVDS,VGA-0” will assign xrandr outputs LVDS and VGA-0 to this instance of the driver. The framebuffer can be addressed either in linear or tiled mode. Tiled mode can provide significant performance benefits with 3D applications.
