New fbdev updates.

From: James Simmons <hidden>

Hi!
   
   I have updates to the framebuffer layer. Alot of bug fixes accumlated. 
A couple of driver updates as well. I have more code to go in but haven't 
had time to add them in. Please test. This is not the final code going in 
just yet. More needs to be done. The patches are at the usual

    http://phoenix.infradead.org/~jsimmons/fbdev.diff.gz

or BK
    bk://fbdev.bkbits.net/fbdev-2.5

Note: 
   The NVIDIA driver hasn't been updated to the new cursor fixes. I 
haven't had time to fix it yet. So it doesn't compile. Also the i810 
driver might have issues with the cursor changes. 
   Skeleton i2c support is added. It hasn't been tested or even compiles 
in yet.

<jsimmons@kozmo.(none)> (03/07/03 1.1251)
   [NEOMAGIC FBDEV] Fixed a nasty bug in the copyarea function. It wasn't testing for the condition when both regions have the same y coordinates but are over lapping. This casued a corrpution of data. Also started ot used the macros in vga.h.

<jsimmons@kozmo.(none)> (03/06/30 1.1246)
   [LOGO] Display the correct logo for MIPS DEC workstations.

<jsimmons@kozmo.(none)> (03/06/25 1.1240)
   [FBCON] Removed the crappy ROP_COPY/ROP_XOR test for flashing the cursor. Now we disable and enable the cursor timer instead.

<jsimmons@kozmo.(none)> (03/06/24 1.1238)
   [FBDEV] Now we can use a specific hardware mapper for different hardware functionality.

Seems my old corrupt cursor is fixed, but with your new code I am
getting ghost cursors left behind while moving around in vim over ssh
with syntax on.

Same here. I can see the ghost cursor also when typing fast on the shell
(via ssh) and the hit backspace, arrows, home, end. I don't see it using
normal tty (the kernel is the same, I just did ssh ::1).

Btw, the cursor doesn't disappear  anymore switching back and forth from
X.

Any chance of getting the radeonfb DFP-on-DVI working? I'm more than
willing to work on it, if no one else has the hardware. I can at least
try to get it working on the Radeon 9000.

I don't have the hardware but I'm willing to accept patches for testing 
for the masses.

BTW, there have recently been updates in this area in XFree86 CVS, in
case you want something to look at.

I'll look into it over the weekend, after seeing how XFree86 and others 
have approached the problem.
