There are a few glitches, but I've been unable to pin down anything serious as the fbdev patch's fault. I'm still playing with things (like Antonio Daplas' patches). I'll give a more full report later. FWIW, the fbdev patch applies with a few minor offsets to 2.5.50 except for the attached patch, which I extracted from bk. So if you apply this patch in *reverse* to a clean 2.5.50 tree, the fbdev patch should then apply okay (patch complained about a reversed hunk in fbcon.c, but it should be harmless, I think.) =20 --=20 Joseph Fannin jh...@ri...
