Re: 2.5 offb breakage

Sorry I have been away for some time. I'm looking for work :-(

What is the correct fix ? Changing back offb to set dispsw or
changing gen_set_disp() to set dispsw for all bit depth ?

I found what the problem was. The soft accel files cfb*.c where not being
linked into off.c. Try this patch and tell me if everything works. BTW you
need to have CONFIG_FBCON_ACCEL set. Eventually all the fbcon-cfb* stuff
will go away.

Also, when code in fbcon_accel.c is calling things like
cfb_imageblit, it uses the "fb_info" field of structure
struct display. Where is this supposed to be initialized ?
It doesn't seem it's done in the drivers themselves (surely
not in offb).

The upper fbcon code sets that. See fbcon_init in fbcon.c.
