But my understanding is all Xorg license should be MIT license. So here my question is can I use or modify xf86-video-dummy driver? If it is really a MIT license, could anybody put the right license for this repo? Thanks a lot<br> ><br> > Horace<br> ><br> <br> </div> </span></font></div> </div> </body> </html>
