<br>
</span>Oh, we should send the correct vrefresh value to the kernel; it's part<br>
of the API after all. Having an integer vrefresh value isn't all that<br>
useful anyways; we often end up with multiple<br>
similar-but-not-quite-the-same modes that differ by less than 1Hz in<br>
vrefresh.<br>
<br>
But, removing VRefresh from the X server and then sending a<br>
computed value to the kernel seems like a fine plan.<br>
<br>
For now, we need to retain ABI in X, so using your existing plan which<br>
computes the value to send to the kernel seems appropriate. That just<br>
needs to be fixed to round the value rather than truncate and I think<br>
we'll be set for 1.17 at least.<br>
