New Card system detect
For modern X-server and udev old card detect mechanism need only for Proprietary blobs. Other card automatically detect with kernel/udev parts and XFdrake not needing for use setup (monitors detect automatically too). We need rework this part.
Also we need simplify merge2pcitable script, drop not usefull and oldest part
- Recreate pcilist, drop all Card: xxxxx part
- Use naiming via vesa/fglrx, ati/fglrx or nvidia-long-lived for drivers (may be ATI/AMD free/proprietary (ati/fglrx) and NVIDIA free/proprietary (nouveau/nvidia-long-lived))
Simplify and Rework
- In merge2pcitable leave:
- ATI/AMD hack and cvs/legacy/current ATI/AMD card detect
- NVIDIA hack and detect
- KMS module hack and detect (aliase)
- pciids
- See needing Suse (hwinfo) and RH (rhxxx) part
- Automate create pcitable and usbtable with download latest version of Hardware
- Reflect this change in new XFdrake
