[PATCH] vgacon/vt: clear buffer attributes when we load a 512 character font (v2)

2013-01-25 Thread Dave Airlie
From: Dave Airlie When we switch from 256->512 byte font rendering mode, it means the current contents of the screen is being reinterpreted. The bit that holds the high bit of the 9-bit font, may have been previously set, and thus the new font misrenders. The problem case we see is grub2 writes
