Reading the comments, I see that it is based on the vendor's 1.19.12 driver, dated 2-Feb-2009. However, the vendor has released an updated version: 1.20.03, dated 2-Dec-2009. Here is the vendor's website for their VT6656 Linux open source driver (sorry about line wraparound, the URL is long): http://www.viaarena.com/ViaDisplayDrivers.aspx?PageID=1&OSID=25&CatID=2590&SubCatID=176&lang=en-GB I'm willing to have a go at merging the vendor's differences between 1.19.12 and 1.20.03, into the Linux driver. Is anybody else currently working on this project? I don't want to duplicate work, if somebody's already doing this. Thanks! Josh
