2007-07-07fb: pvr2fb: A few more __devinit annotations for PCI.Paul Mundt
In the PCI + hotplug case we end up with some bogus references between the PCI driver path and the DC path. In order to fix this, we have to rework the common init path for __devinit, as well as moving all of the data that it references to __devinidata. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2007-07-07fb: pvr2fb: Fix up section mismatch warnings.Paul Mundt
A few minor things were broken here. fix and var screeninfo should have been __devinitdata, board_list[] gets renamed to board_driver[] so the modpost matching does the right thing, and we properly discard some of the unused exit sections. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

2007-05-08vgacon: disallow console operations when in KD_GRAPHICS modeAntonino A. Daplas
Reported by James Pearson as: boot to run level 3 if not root, then make sure /dev/console is writeable login and type: setterm -blank 0 start X type into an xterm: while true; do echo "" > /dev/console; usleep 100000; done while the above loop is running switch to the text console and back again (Ctrl-Alt-F1 then Ctrl-Alt-F7) ... and the screen will be shifting (and wrapping) to the left. This problem stems from continuously writing text to the system console (which is in KD_TEXT mode) while the foreground console is in KD_GRAPHICS mode. Somewhere along the way, console printing got confused and omitted the KD_GRAPHICS/KD_TEXT test. Thus, vgacon attempted to scroll the screen of X, which causes X to shift. Fix by disallowing vgacon to touch the hardware when the vc is in KD_GRAPHICS mode. A definitive fix entails a full audit of the console code.
