I'd say that there's something else going one here. Mode setting and cursor 
movement should be protected against each other by DRM locking. 
Changing these low-level functions would not solve the issues. I'll try to 
reproduce the problem ASAP.

Hi Thomas,

Sorry to interrupt you again!
May I understand the review's situation? Thanks!

Best Regards,
        Kuo-Hsiang Chou

Best regards
Thomas
