[Bug 459512] Re: X server aborts if two primary devices found

 

This patch is just the inverse of the previous one - if more than one
device is present, just select the first one seen.

I'm going to go with the other patch since it's closest to what we were
doing before, however I don't have strong preferences here.  The main
reason we went with the last busid before was for the use case where
there is an on-board video chip, and the user has stuck in a second card
that they'd prefer to be used.  However, I think in these cases there is
always going to be a primary device, so I don't think it is a relevant
consideration any more.

Anyway, I'm posting both patches here and soliciting feedback on which
would cover more cases in practice.
