Re: [Linux-fbdev-devel] Re: atyfb in 2.5.51

Before, most drivers just unconditionally refresh the hardware at every
switch  during set_var(). I've been pointing this out for a long time
now, do we unconditionally do a check_var()/set_par() after every
console switch, or do we rely on fbdev and X cooperating with each
other? Or better, maybe fbcon has a way of knowing if the switch came
from  Xfree86.

My next project is to fix this issue. I will be working on that today.
