[PATCH] New version of NeoMagic Framebuffer driver
Hi, I fixed an important bug with panning after X usage and added module and kernel parameter support. -- Denis Oliver Kropp ( convergence ) ( integrated media gmbh ) neofb-0.2.1-patch-2.4.3.bz2

[PATCH] NeoMagic Framebuffer Driver
Hi, I wrote a framebuffer driver for all NeoMagic PCI chips ported from current XFree driver, not based on the AFAIK unfinished driver of Ani Joshi or Helge Deller. This is version 0.2 with some little TODOs like module parameters or kernel parameter parsing; it's tested with NM2200 and NM2380. The patch is against 2.4.3, please test the driver, merge into kernel tree would be appreciated. I'm not on the list, so do a Cc to me, please.
