30 | The <application>Xorg VESA Driver</application> contains the
|
---|
31 | Generic VESA video driver for the Xorg X server. This driver
|
---|
32 | is often used as fallback driver if the hardware specific
|
---|
33 | driver fails to load or is not present. If this driver is not
|
---|
34 | installed, Xorg Server will print a warning on startup, but it
|
---|
35 | can be safely ignored if hardware specific driver works well.
