Re: Pismo Aty128fb problem in 2.4.3-pre*?

Narrowed down the problem a bit more. Specifying
"video=aty128fb:mode:17" works; also without the mode.
But, adding a depth parm (8,16,24, or 32) causes the
fb init failure. It defaults to 8 and fbset works for
8,15,16,32 but 24 causes a blurry image.

The last is - *tadda* - an endianness error. aty128fb incorrectly enables byte
swapping for 24 bit, which can easily be fixed; look for CONFIG_CNTL .
