Only mod to the source was a patch to let me use menuconfig without

I posted a fix for this a while ago (perhaps a week or two ago).
I think Alan Cox picked it up but it may not have made it into
any Linus kernel yet.

I finished porting over the driver to the new api last night. It will be
part of the next pull by Linus. I have a few more things I need done over
the weekend for the new fbdev stuff.

Was there something wrong with my patches to do the same thing
that have been in Alan Cox's tree for some time now?

No, but the final api is done and struct display_switch is going away!!!
So I had to fix the driver to work with the latest changes.

I will be posting a patch today against 2.5.48. It will have the latest
changes for the fbdev layer. Note several drivers are still broken but I'm
in the process of updating them over the next few days :-)
