      [PATCH] Set the vga cursor even when hidden · 88dcb6c4
      Samuel Thibault 提交于
      Some visually impaired people use hardware devices which directly read
      the vga screen. When newt for instance asks to hide the cursor for
      better visual aspect, the kernel puts the vga cursor out of the screen,
      so that the cursor position can't be read by the hardware device. This
      is a great loss for such people.
      
      Here is a patch which uses the same technique as CUR_NONE for hiding the
      cursor while still moving it.
      
      Mario, you should apply it to the speakup kernel for access floppies
      asap. I'll submit a 2.4 patch too.

      [DRIVER MODEL] Fix sgivwfb · 2c119aa8
      Russell King 提交于
      Statically allocated devices in module data is a potential cause
      of oopsen.  The device may be in use by a userspace process, which
      will keep a reference to the device.  If the module is unloaded,
      the module data will be freed.  Subsequent use of the platform
      device will cause a kernel oops.
      
      Use generic platform device allocation/release code in modules.

      Release code in driver modules is a potential cause of oopsen.
      The device may be in use by a userspace process, which will keep
      a reference to the device.  If the module is unloaded, the module
      text will be freed.  Subsequently, when the last reference is

      [PATCH] nvidiafb: Geforce 7800 series support added · 7015faa7
      Calin A. Culianu 提交于
      This adds support for the Nvidia Geforce 7800 series of cards to the
      nvidiafb framebuffer driver.  All it does is add the PCI device id for
      the 7800, 7800 GTX, 7800 GO, and 7800 GTX GO cards to the module device
      table for the nvidiafb.ko driver, so that nvidiafb.ko will actually work
      on these cards.
      
      I also added the relevant PCI device ids to linux/pci_ids.h
      
      I tested it on my 7800 GTX here and it works like a charm.  I now can
      get framebuffer support on this card! Woo hoo!! Nothing like 200x75 text
      mode to make your eyes BLEED.  ;)

      [PATCH] fix vgacon blanking · 1a66ddcb
      Pozsar Balazs 提交于
      This patch fixes a long-standing vgacon bug: characters with the bright bit
      set were left on the screen and not blacked out.  All I did was that I
      lookuped up some examples on the net about setting the vga palette, and
      added the call missing from the linux kernel, but included in all other
      ones.  It works for me.
      
      You can test this by writing something with the bright set to the
      console, for example:
        echo -e "\e[1;31mhello there\e[0m"
      and then wait for the console to blank itself (by default, after 10 mins
      of inactivity), maybe making it faster using
        setterm -blank 1
      so you only have to wait 1 minute.

      [PATCH] vesafb: Fix display corruption on display blank · bb7e257e
      Antonino A. Daplas 提交于
      Reported by: Bob Tracy <rct@gherkin.frus.com>
      
       "...I've got a Toshiba notebook (730XCDT -- Pentium 150MMX) for which
        I'm using the Vesa FB driver.  When the machine has been idle for some
        time and the driver attempts to powerdown the display, rather than the
        display going blank, it goes gray with several strange lines.  When I
        hit the "shift" key or other-wise wake up the display, the old video
        state is not fully restored..."
      
      vesafb recently added a blank method which has only 2 states, powerup and
      powerdown.  The powerdown state is used for all blanking levels, but in his
      case, powerdown does not work correctly for higher levels of display
      powersaving. Thus, for intermediate power levels, use software blanking,
      and use only hardware blanking for an explicit powerdown.
