[PATCH] vgacon: no vertical resizing on EGA

2006-02-24T22:31:37+00:00

EGA boards suck: they mostly have write-only registers. This is particularly problematic for the overflow register: for being able to write to it, we would have to handle vertical sync & such too, which (I'd say) would potentially break a lot of configurations. Instead, just disabling vertical resize for EGA boards is just nice enough (horizontal resize still works).

[PATCH] drivers/video/: possible cleanups

2006-01-10T16:01:56+00:00

This patch contains the possible cleanups including the following: - every file should #include the headers containing the prototypes for it's global functions - make needlessly global functions static - kyro/STG4000Interface.h: #include video/kyro.h and linux/pci.h instead of a manual "struct pci_dev" - i810_main.{c,h}: prototypes for static functions belong to the C file Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk Acked-by: "Antonino A.

[PATCH] fbcon: Code cleanups

2006-01-10T16:01:51+00:00

- replace kmalloc with kzalloc - remove repeated define (FONTCHHCNT) - remove unneeded local variable (redraw) in ypan_{up|down}_redraw - add and delete cursor timer in fbcon_switch() if old_info != info Signed-off-by: Antonino Daplas Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] fbcon: disable ywrap if not supported by fbcon scrolling code

2006-01-10T16:01:50+00:00

updatescrollmode() must not select ywrap scrolling if divides(vc->vc_font.height, yres) is not true as this is not supported by the actual ywrap scrolling code. The bug is triggered with e.g. mode 800x600, vxres 1024, vyres 8192, bpp 8, font dimensions 8x16, 8Mb video ram and FBINFO_HWACCEL_YWRAP set. If those conditions are met, scrolling is broken and garbage is permanently displayed at the bottom of the screen. No regression, no possible side effects. Definitely needed by cyblafb and probably needed by amifb. Signed-off-by: Knut Petersen Acked-by: Antonino Daplas Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] fbcon: Store struct display when setting all vcs

2006-01-10T16:01:43+00:00

Store struct display when setting all vc's. Otherwise, fbcon's behavior becomes undefined, such as malpositioning of the cursor. Signed-off-by: Antonino Daplas Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] fbcon: Sanitize fbcon

Do not pass the structure display since fbcon is already keeping the pointer to the current display. Signed-off-by: Antonino Daplas Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
