[TRIDENT FBDEV] Driver ported to the new api.

<[email protected]> (03/01/10 1.887.1.4)
Final updtes to the GTF code. Now the code can gnerate GTF timings regardless of the validity of info->monospecs.

[ATYFB] Updates to the aty driver.

<[email protected]> (03/01/08 1.887.1.1)
Remove fb_set_var. Some how it was missed in a merge conflict.

<jsimmons@kozmo.(none)> (03/01/08 1.889)
[ATY] Somehow a merge mistake happened. We removed fb_set_var.

<[email protected]> (03/01/08 1.887)
[MONITOR support] GTF support for VESA complaint monitors. Here we calculate the general timings needed so we don't over step the bounds for a monitor.

[fbmem.c cleanup] Name change to make teh code easier to read.

<[email protected]> (03/01/07 1.879.2.95)
Updates from Helge Deller for the console/fbdev drivers for the PARISC platform. Small fix for clearing the screen and a string typo for the Voodoo 1/2 driver.

<[email protected]> (03/01/06 1.879.2.93)
[RIVA FBDEV] Driver now uses its own fb_open and fb_release function again. It has no ill effects. The drivers uses strickly hardware acceleration so we don't need cfb_fillrect and cfb_copyarea.
Cleaned up font.h. Geerts orignal pacth broke them up into a font.h in video and one in linux. Now I put them back together again in include/linux. The m68k platform has been updated for this change.


<[email protected]> (03/01/06 1.879.2.92)
Added resize support for the framebuffer console. Now you can change the console size via stty. Also support for color palette changing on VC switch is supported.

<[email protected]> (03/01/06 1.879.2.91)
I810 fbdev updates. Cursor fix for ati mach 64 cards on big endian machines. Buffer over flow fix for fbcon putcs function. C99 initializers for the STI console drivers.Voodoo 1/2 and NVIDIA driver updates.

James,

2.5 still doesn't work on my vaio (I think I told you about this 3-4
months ago) with the neofb. It just crashes with a black screen. If you
don't have any clues what the problem is, I can hook the machine up to a
serial console and see if anything interesting pops up. Using vesafb
does make it boot, however the screen stays pitch black until X loads...

VESA doesn't work either. Can you check to see if you have framebuffer
console enabled. Yes I'm curious to see why your neofb doesn't work.

Any chance it is similar to http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=263
