https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id9842 Summary: savagefb.h CARD SERIES definition typo Product: Drivers Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 3.0.0 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: Video(Other) AssignedTo: drivers_video-other@kernel-bugs.osdl.org ReportedBy: jpsinthemix@verizon.net Regression: Yes I have an old T22 Thinkpad with integrated Savage/IX-MV video. As of linux-3.0, the video is non-functional; the PC either hard hangs immediately or has totally garbled video, and then hard hangs, as soon as I attempt to edit a file or cat a file with more than a screen-full of text. The foregoing details are actually not important any more as in looking at the code changes I discovered a typo in linux-3.0.0/drivers/video/savage/savagefb.h and have applied the following patch to fix the issue:--- linux-3.0.0.old/drivers/video/savage/savagefb.h 2011-07-2122:17:23.000000000 -0400+++ linux-3.0.0.new/drivers/video/savage/savagefb.h 2011-07-2305:13:33.801215293 -0400@@ -55,7 +55,7 @@ #define S3_SAVAGE3D_SERIES(chip) ((chip>=S3_SAVAGE3D) &&(chip<=S3_SAVAGE_MX)) -#define S3_SAVAGE4_SERIES(chip) ((chip>=S3_SAVAGE4) || (chip<=S3_PROSAVAGEDDR)) +#define S3_SAVAGE4_SERIES(chip) ((chip>=S3_SAVAGE4) && (chip<=S3_PROSAVAGEDDR))
Please resend that fix as a formal signed-off-patch as a reply-to-all
to this email? Documentation/SubmittingPatches has some tips.
Thanks.
