This used to work fine (garbage in borders was cleared when fbcon did
pan/wrap), so I consider it a regression.

 

Well, it definitely is broken. If you don´t have a quick fix, we should
disable
that code path for 2.6.15 as I suggested.

Our goal should be

      int good_wrap = (cap & FBINFO_HWACCEL_YWRAP) &&
              divides(ywrap, vc->vc_font.height) &&
-               divides(vc->vc_font.height, vyres) &&
-               divides(vc->vc_font.height, yres);


for one of the next releases.

You're right, I was confused with ypan. Upon more reflections, for ywrap, it
probably never worked before.
