Hi,

If anyone is planning work on/uses igafb.c, could they please drop me a
mail. I'm looking at the possibility of sucking the support igafb.c
provides into cyber2000fb.c, and will need testers (esp. Sparc please)

I believe most of this was done a while ago by various other people
(Pete Zaitcev?)

Thanks.

Isn't this a S3 chipset. I laos have a few drivers for a bunchof S3 cards.
It would be nice if we could have a more generic S3 framebuffer.

No. It's infinitely more <5 letter word deleted to protect the guilty>,
not to mention register incompatible!
