DESCRIPTION
       These   functions   provide   an	 interface  to	the  server  extension
       XFree86-VidModeExtension which allows the video modes to be queried and
       adjusted dynamically and mode switching to be controlled.  Applications
       that use these functions must be linked with -lXxf86vm

   MODELINE FUNCTIONS
       The XF86VidModeGetModeLine function is used to query the	 settings  for
       the  currently  selected video mode.  The calling program should pass a
       pointer to a XF86VidModeModeLine structure that it  has	already	 allo‐
       cated.  The function fills in the fields of the structure.

       If  there  are  any server private values (currently only applicable to
       the S3 server) the function will allocate storage for them.  Therefore,
       if  the	privsize  field	 is  non-zero, the calling program should call
       Xfree(private) to free the storage.

       XF86VidModeGetAllModeLines returns the settings for  all	 video	modes.
       The calling program supplies the address of a pointer which will be set
       by the function to point to an array of XF86VidModeModeInfo structures.
       The  memory  occupied  by  the  array  is  dynamically allocated by the
       XF86VidModeGetAllModeLines function and should be freed by the  caller.
       The first element of the array corresponds to the current video mode.

       The  XF86VidModeModModeLine function can be used to change the settings
       of the current video mode provided the  requested  settings  are	 valid
       (e.g. they don't exceed the capabilities of the monitor).

       Modes  can be deleted with the XF86VidModeDeleteModeLine function.  The
       specified mode must match an existing mode.  To be considered a	match,
       all  of	the  fields  of	 the  given XF86VidModeModeInfo structure must
       match, except the privsize and private  fields.	 If  the  mode	to  be
       deleted	is the current mode, a mode switch to the next mode will occur
       first.  The last remaining mode can not be deleted.

       The validity of a mode can be checked with the XF86VidModeValidateMode‐
       Line  function.	 If the specified mode can be used by the server (i.e.
       meets all the constraints placed upon a mode by the combination of  the
       server,	card,  and monitor) the function returns MODE_OK, otherwise it
       returns a value indicating the reason  why  the	mode  is  invalid  (as
       defined in xf86.h)

   MODE SWITCH FUNCTIONS
       When  the  function  XF86VidModeSwitchMode  is  called, the server will
       change the video mode to next (or previous) video mode. The XF86VidMod‐
       eSwitchToMode  function can be used to switch directly to the specified
       mode.  Matching is as specified in the description of  the  XF86VidMod‐
       eAddModeLine  function  above.	The XF86VidModeLockModeSwitch function
       can be used to allow or disallow mode switching whether the request  to
       switch modes comes from a call to the XF86VidModeSwitchMode or XF86Vid‐
       ModeSwitchToMode	 functions  or	from  one  of  the  mode  switch   key
       sequences.

       Note:  Because  of the asynchronous nature of the X protocol, a call to
       XFlush is needed if the application wants to see the mode change	 imme‐
       diately.	 To be informed of the execution status of the request, a cus‐
       tom error handler should be  installed  using  XSetErrorHandler	before
       calling the mode switching function.

   MONITOR FUNCTIONS
       Information  known  to  the server about the monitor is returned by the
       XF86VidModeGetMonitor function.	The hsync and vsync fields each	 point
       to  an  array  of  XF86VidModeSyncRange structures.  The arrays contain
       nhsync and nvsync elements, respectively.  The hi and low  values  will
       be equal if a discreate value was given in the XF86Config file.

       The  vendor,  model, hsync, and vsync fields point to dynamically allo‐
       cated storage that should be freed by the caller.

   VIEWPORT FUNCTIONS
       The XF86VidModeGetViewPort and XF86VidModeSetViewPort functions can  be
       used  to, respectively, query and change the location of the upper left
       corner of the viewport into the virtual screen.

   OTHER FUNCTIONS
       The XF86VidModeQueryVersion function can be used to determine the  ver‐
       sion of the extension built into the server.

       The  function  XF86VidModeQueryExtension	 returns  the  lowest numbered
       error and event values assigned to the extension.

BUGS
       The XF86VidModeSetClientVersion,	 XF86VidModeGetDotClocks,  XF86VidMod‐
       eGetGamma,  XF86VidModeSetGamma,	 XF86VidModeSetGammaRamp,  XF86VidMod‐
       eGetGammaRamp, XF86VidModeGetGammaRampSize,  and	 XF86VidModeGetPermis‐
       sions  functions	 need  to  be  documented.  In the meantime, check the
       source code for information about how to use them.
