I've ran into something I didn't expect. I've been doing video to the
vga or dvi output of my i915 laptop using the overlay adapter to get
brightness/contrast/etc . I just switched over to the LDVS (disabling
the other monitors in xorg.conf), and found that I get nothing but blue
screen where the overlay should be on the display. In this configuration
pipe A is shown as off, and the LDVS goes to pipe B.
If I enable both the VGA and LDVS, the VGA gets A and the LDVS gets B
and overlay video only goes to VGA.
So can only pipe A do overlay video and the LDVS only can use pipe B?
Are shaders for the textured adapter on anyones roadmap?

In a somewhat unrelated question it appears to me that running VGA and
LDVS simultaneously gives you a cloned display with the resolution modes
of the LDVS. Are there any other options for running both at once?
