Message-ID: <20070630163101.GA3838@spock.one.pl> Date: Sat, 30 Jun 2007 18:31:01 +0200 From: Michal Januszewski <spock@...too.org> To: linux-fbdev-devel@...ts.sourceforge.net Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, hpa@...or.com Subject: [PATCH v2 0/5] uvesafb: a general description uvesafb is a generic driver for VBE2+ compliant video cards; an enhanced version of vesafb and a direct successor of vesafb-tng [1]. This is the second version of this patch, and it incorporates all fixes and cleanups suggested on the lkml. My thanks to everyone who took their time to review the first version. uvesafb uses a userspace helper application (v86d, [2]) to run the x86 Video BIOS code. This makes it possible to include in uvesafb all the standard features (refresh rate control, video mode changes etc) that are missing from vesafb without resorting to ugly hacks such as the ones used in [1]. The current implementation of v86d can use either LRMI or x86emu to run the BIOS code and supports both x86 and x86_64.
