iBook2: Screen litter again

2001-11-27 Thread Mats Aigner
Hello! On my iBook2, the ATY R128 framebuffer device litters the screen with spurious characters (often at the end of a long line of text, or in the minibuffer in emacs when doing an I-search, etc) in an unpredictable but reproducible way. However, the Open Firmware framebuffer device (i.e.

In XFree 4.1.0's source, in xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/ati/r128_driver.c, lines 1105 to 1118 call XF86ValidateModes with a minPitch of 8 * 64 (512) and a max pitch of 8 * 1024 (8192

Hello all. The following patches make slight changes to the vmode/cmode logic on a few fb drivers. Now everone consistantly only tries to get these modes from nvram if CONFIG_NVRAM is defined (otherwise a compile-time error on everyone but atyfb). On imsttfb I made the logic only executed on CON
