| |
From: Michal Januszewski <spock@gentoo.org>
Currently, if a perfect match in terms of resolution is not found, fb_find_mode() only looks for a best-fit mode among modes with a higher resolution than the one requested. Thus, if the user requests a resolution higher than the largest supported one, they are dropped to the default mode (usually a low resolution one).
Change this behaviour so that the true closest match in terms of the city-block metric is returned.
