From 28254d439b8c65f93cb331f5aa741efa6a8ec62f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Samuel Thibault Date: Fri, 9 Sep 2005 13:01:58 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] vga text console and stty cols/rows Some people use 66-cells braille devices for reading the console, and hence would like to reduce the width of the screen by using: stty cols 66 However, the vga text console doesn't behave correctly: the 14 first characters of the second line are put on the right of the first line and so forth. Here is a patch to correct that. It corrects the disp_end and offset registers of the vga board on console resize and console switch. On usual screens, you then correctly get a right and/or bottom blank margin. On some laptop panels, the output is resized so that text actually gets magnified, which can be great for some people (see http://dept-info.labri.fr/~thibault/ls.jpg ).
