(Depending on how correct I am with the interpretation, there might be some bugs in fbdev on how it determines the color depth. No one is complaining yet though, so greater than 1-bit monochrome is probably rare if not nonexistent.)There definitely are bugs w.r.t. this, especially in the 2.4 logo code ;-)Yes, I would agree. Do you know of any outstanding bugs on color handling in 2.6 code, especially for hardware with bitdepths < 8? I would like to fix them.Unfortunately not. Due to personel reasons, I temporarily don't have much time left to do real coding. You can always try vgafb's 16 color mode and check for yourself.
That's okay. I'm actually emulating these low bit depths using pseudocolor whenever I look for bugs for depths < 4 (ie monochrome text attributes). I haven't found any yet except for the greater than 1-bit monochrome color handling which I've already fixed in my tree.
