Excerpt from the ChangeLog |

-------------------------- |

29 Jun 2006 * <spock@g.o> * vesafb-tng-1.0-rc2-git-20060629 |

- Always compile the CFB* helper modules directly into the kernel. |
17 |
This allows us to avoid the "undefined reference to 'cfb_fillrect'" bug |
18 |
when the standard vesafb driver is selected as a module. |
19 |
- Add support for fb_open and fb_release. With the new console binding |
20 |
mechanism, it is now possible to unbind fbcon and go back to the text |
21 |
mode. |
22 |
- Follow upstream (vesafb) changes wrt palette setting. |
23 |
- Fix a stupid bug in the memory mapping code (fixes some strange |
24 |
segfaults). |
