2007-02-12[PATCH] Video: fb, add true ref_count atomicityJiri Slaby
Some of fb drivers uses atomic_t in bad manner, since there are still some race-prone gaps. Use mutexes to protect open/close code sections with ref_count testing and finally use simple uint.

2007-02-12[PATCH] remove the broken FB_S3TRIO driverAdrian Bunk
The FB_S3TRIO driver: - has been marked as BROKEN for more than two years and - is still marked as BROKEN. Drivers that had been marked as BROKEN for such a long time seem to be unlikely to be revived in the forseeable future. But if anyone wants to ever revive this driver, the code is still present in the older kernel releases.

2006-12-22[PATCH] gxt4500: Fix colormap and PLL setting, support GXT6000PPaul Mackerras
This fixes some bugs in the gxt4500 framebuffer driver, and adds support for GXT6000P cards. First, I had the red and blue channels swapped in the colormap update code, resulting in penguins' noses and feet turning blue (though the penguins weren't actually shivering :). Secondly, the code that calculated the values to put in the PLL that generates the pixel clock wasn't observing some constraints that I wasn't originally aware of, but am now that I have some documentation on the chip. The GXT6000P is essentially identical from software's point of view, except for a different reference clock for the PLL, and the addition of a geometry engine (which this driver doesn't use).

2006-12-08[PATCH] backlight: do not power off backlight when unregisteringHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
ACPI drivers like ibm-acpi are moving to the backlight sysfs infrastructure. During ibm-acpi testing, I have noticed that backlight_device_unregister() sets the display brightness and power to zero. This causes the display to be dimmed on ibm-acpi module removal. It will affect all other ACPI drivers that are being converted to use the backlight class, as well. It also affects a number of framebuffer devices that are used on desktops and laptops which might also not want such behaviour. Since working around this behaviour requires undesireable hacks, Richard Purdie decided that we would be better off reverting the changes in the sysfs class, and adding the code to dim and power off the backlight device to the drivers that want it. This patch is my attempt to do so. Patch against latest linux-2.6.git. Changes untested, as I lack the required hardware. Still, they are trivial enough that, apart from typos, there is little chance of getting them wrong.

2006-12-08[PATCH] softcursor.c: avoid unaligned accessesFranck Bui-Huu
Fix some possible unaligned accesses when accessing fields of 'image' pointer. Indeed this pointer was obtained by allocating a block of memory that embeds a temporary array plus an image structure. The temporary buffer was located at the start of the allocated block and depending on its size, the image structure which comes right after can be unaligned. For example when using mini fonts (4x6) (cursor's width is 4 and its height is 6) the temporary buf size is 6 bytes. Therefore this patch moves the image structure to the start of the block and moves the temporary buffer right after. It makes 'image' pointer always aligned and since the tempo buf is a buffer of char, it's always correctly aligned as well. It also fixes the file header alignement.
