No, aty mach64 does not use fbcon_cfbX_bmove() and fbcon_cfbX_clear(), it
uses it's own routines. Something must have installed the fbcon_cfbX_*()
routines when he left X. Usually atyfb never calls fb_mem*() functions.

Anyway, I put a sample implementation using fb_readX/writeX in cvs.

During testing I saw some oddity with atyfb:

Doing a 'cat <largefile>' takes about say 30 seconds. Doing a scroll-up and
scroll-down using <SHIFT>-<PGUP>, <SHIFT>-<PGDN> before the 'cat <largefile>'
speeds it up to about 3 seconds. Something not initialized properly???
