Re: [Mactel-linux-devel] mac mini

[Erik O. <er...@pl...>]

I have modified imacfb.c so that it can take 'height' and 'width'
parameters on boot. So for instance you could say:

video=imacfb:mini,height=1280,width=1024

This will override the default value that we use.

I have tested this on my Mac Mini and it seems to work fine for me (I
can make the screen 800x600, or 1024x768, or 1280x1024). I was
thinking of making the argument something more like
"geometry=1024x768" but it turns out that parsing out height and width
separately is a lot easier.

I am attaching the new imacfb.c. I'm not a regular kernel contributor
so maybe I formatted something wrong, but things seem reasonable to
me. Please let me know if there are problems with it.
