Over the past several days we have seen some interesting developments with the Avivo driver due to the increased performance (attributed to shadow frame-buffer support). In the past five hours we have seen six commits to the xf86-video-avivo driver. These commits all pertain to avivotool with some of the changes being to dump 128 bytes of EDID data instead of 64 bytes, verbose i2c information, and making i2c more reliable. Additional information is available from the driver gitweb page.
