Since I can't compile this driver on my architecture, I'm afraid I haven't been able to test this patch at all.
This patch is relevant for 2.5.x only, and pm3fb can't compile and work on 2.5.x. The FB API was changed, and FB drivers need to be rewritten. As I never found a 2.5.x release that would compile on my box (no x86 here), I didn't port pm3fb. BTW, pm3fb should not be integrated in 2.5.x, it was submitted only to 2.4.x and somehow found its way in 2.5.x. I don't maintain pm3fb on 2.5.x, never has, and likely never will. The proper fix for pm3fb in 2.5 is to delete it, at least until someone else rewrite it or until 2.5.x can actually compile and work on PowerPC and I can rewrite it myself. -- romain ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf
