There are still too much drm driver without atomic modesetting

  • nouveau (need nouveau_atomic=1 on the kernel command line).
  • radeon (for pre-GCN AMD GPU, newer use amdgpu driver).

So fallback to legacy modesetting if atomic is not supported.

Fix #227

There are still too much drm driver without atomic modesetting
- nouveau (need nouveau_atomic=1 on the kernel command line).
- radeon (for pre-GCN AMD GPU, newer use amdgpu driver).

So fallback to legacy modesetting if atomic is not supported.
