I'll be happier with character coordinates for text mode.
Yuck!! Using fbcon for text modes is just bloat. For hardware text mode it
is much better to write a nice small console driver like newport_con.c
could decide on case-by-case basis whether it will use its own code or
generic without touching pointer (without modifying potentially constant
fb_ops structure common to all fbdev instances).
The patch was rejected. I working on your driver. I can throw in a text
mode driver as well.
