[To:linux-kernel & CC:linux-fbdev-devel] Hello, I've written a framebuffer (fbdev) driver for the 3DLabs Permedia3 chipset, targeted at both kernel 2.2.x and 2.4.y, and available at: <http://www.irisa.fr/prive/dolbeau/pm3fb/pm3fb.html> As mentioned on the page, the driver hasn't been thoroughly tested except on my board, as even after two announcements on the fbdev-devel list there hasn't been any answer beside a XFree86 driver develloper. Fortunately that's two different boards on two different architectures of different endianess. The only _known_ remaining bug relate to depth switching, going from 8 to 16/32 bpp give a wrong colormap (need to go to X and back to restore). The only known current fix is a small patch again driver/video/fbgen.c that probably break something else, so I haven't included it in the distributed patch. If the driver is ever integrated, here's the MAINTAINERS stuff: (not yet included in the linux kernel patches) PERMEDIA 3 FRAMEBUFFER DRIVER P: Romain Dolbeau M: [EMAIL PROTECTED] L: [EMAIL PROTECTED] W: <http://www.irisa.fr/prive/dolbeau/pm3fb/pm3fb.html> S: Maintained Hope someone will find it useful, -- DOLBEAU Romain | l'histoire est entierement vraie, puisque ENS Cachan / Ker Lann | je l'ai imaginee d'un bout a l'autre [EMAIL PROTECTED] | -- Boris Vian - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
