#636: Firmware Q2B11 breaks xorg.conf autoselection script
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------

     Type:  defect   |      Status:  new      
 Priority:  blocker  |   Milestone:  Untriaged
Component:  distro   |    Keywords:           
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 The xorg.conf autoselection script looks for the occurance of 'Q2A' in the
 ROM to tell if its running under qemu or on an OLPC.  The new bios build
 from quanta is PQ2B11 so 'Q2B' will show up in the rom string.  This
 breaks the script.

 Now that /proc/device-tree stuff will be in the olpc kernel soon we may be
 able to use that and dismiss with this issue completly but in the meantime
 and if line for 'Q2B' needs to get added to the script.
