Didn't you report you applied my rivafb patch to your 2.6.0-test tree recently? Doess it still not work properly? The only thing I cannot get working is the backlight, and the cursor on the initial console is weird. Regarding working in changes from Xfree86 CVS: I found the 2.6 rivafb to be pretty up to date WRT XFree86 already. But I can have another close look. Michael
