The SM502 registers are in little endian format, you access them over PCI interface, that is the reason. The commit introduced a regression, I'll try to fix it this weekend. IIRC, there is a flag to switch to big-endian register format in SM502, but I'm not sure if it will also affect frame buffer data format. Anatolij
