This patch fixes a problem with wasted memory in the rivafb driver. For some reason, only half the memory is currently allowed when maximizing the virtual screen. The 2.5.x tree has the same problem. Is this a reserve for something? I have not found any use for it inside the driver. My app needs all the precious video memory it can get. :) Fredrik
