Subject: [PATCH] [RESEND] fbcon: simple text blinking implementation
Hi all,
at the moment blinking is not supported in fbcon but it is supported in
vgacon.
Since userspace applications don't distinguish between the two, they just
assume that the linux terminal is always capable of blinking text.
However implementing blinking in fbcon is not so difficult: this patch
provides a very simple (too simple?) implementation of that.
I am using the flashcursor function to scan the buffer for blinking text.
For the sake of efficiency I added a simple flag mechanism to disable the scan
when I am sure that there are no blinking characters on the screen.
