Still no penguin (same error as above).
The problem is that drm_mode_legacy_fb_format(), which is called from
drm_fbdev_shmem_driver_fbdev_probe -> drm_driver_legacy_fb_format ->
drm_mode_legacy_fb_format
Sets the pixel format DRM_FORMAT_C{1,2} when bpp is 1 or 2.
So I don't think it is possible to use the _R formats with fbdev.
But I'm not sure?
