[PATCH RESEND] video/udlfb: fix line counting in fb_write

From: Alexander Holler <hidden>
Date: 2012-08-14 07:11:31

Line 0 and 1 were both written to line 0 (on the display) and all subsequent
lines had an offset of -1. The result was that the last line on the display
was never overwritten by writes to /dev/fbN.

As Bernie agreed but didn't send me a pull request, I applied this one.
Though the formatting was screwed up and I had to fix it...


Best regards,

Thanks a lot.

Sorry, must have happened because I've used "Edit as new" in Thunderbird
to resend the patch while just adding the RESEND to the subject.

Good to know.

Thanks,

Alexander
