This interface is defined by the Video Electronics Standards +Association (VESA). The standards are available for purchase at +http://www.vesa.org . The DDC bus is not yet supported because its register +is not directly memory-mapped. + +The second interface is a general-purpose I2C bus. This is the only +interface supported by the driver at the moment. + |
