2006-01-10[PATCH] vesafb: Drop blank hookAntonino A. Daplas
From: Bugzilla Bug 5351 "After resuming from S3 (suspended while in X), the LCD panel stays black . However, the laptop is up again, and I can SSH into it from another machine. I can get the panel working again, when I first direct video output to the CRT output of the laptop, and then back to LCD (done by repeatedly hitting Fn+F5 buttons on the Toshiba, which directs output to either LCD, CRT or TV) None of this ever happened with older kernels." This bug is due to the recently added vesafb_blank() method in vesafb. It works with CRT displays, but has a high incidence of problems in laptop users. Since CRT users don't really get that much benefit from hardware blanking, drop support for this.

2005-09-09[PATCH] fbdev: Resurrect hooks to get EDID from firmwareAntonino A. Daplas
For the i386, code is already present in video.S that gets the EDID from the video BIOS. Make this visible so drivers can also use this data as fallback when i2c does not work. To ensure that the EDID block is returned for the primary graphics adapter only, by check if the IORESOURCE_ROM_SHADOW flag is set.

2005-09-09[PATCH] vesafb: Add blanking supportAntonino A. Daplas
Add rudimentary support by manipulating the VGA registers. However, not all vesa modes are VGA compatible, so VGA compatiblity is checked first. Only 2 levels are supported, powerup and powerdown.

2005-05-05[PATCH] CodingStyle: trivial whitespace fixupsDomen Puncer
When I do a "diff -Nur arch/i386 arch/x86_64" to see what is different between these two architectures, I see some differences due to whitespace issues only. The attached patch removes some of the noise by fixing up the following files: - arch/i386/boot/bootsect.S - arch/i386/boot/video.S - arch/x86_64/boot/bootsect.S Signed-off-by: Daniel Dickman <didickman@yahoo.com> Signed-off-by: Domen Puncer <domen@coderock.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
