Substantial changes were made to shadowfb 4 months ago:
422. Updates for shadowfb code
- Add RENDER support
- support for pre-fb modifications
- support for real framebuffers rather than memory based framebuffer
- Removal of old fullscreen update code (when VT switching)
- fix bug in FillSpans
(#5411, #5413, Nolan Leake, VMware).
Does that correspond with the breakage?
Mark.
