- Don't assume the line length in the video memory is always the same as the screen width. - Store the current video mode information in the `video_adapter' struct. - The size of the `v_offscreensize' field in the VESA mode information block is u_int16, not u_int8. Oked by: jkh

- Bring down the splash screen when a vty is opened for the first time. - Make sure the splash screen/screen saver is stopped before switching vtys. - Read and save initial values in the BIOS data area early. VESA BIOS may change BIOS data values when switching modes. - Fix missing '&' operator. - Move ISA specific part of driver initialization to syscons_isa.c. atkbd - kbdtables.h is now in /sys/dev/kbd. all - Adjust for forthcoming alpha port.

The first stage of console driver reorganization: activate new

keyboard and video card drivers. Because of the changes, you are required to update your kernel configuration file now! The files in sys/dev/syscons are still i386-specific (but less so than before), and won't compile for alpha and PC98 yet. syscons still directly accesses the video card registers here and there; this will be rectified in the later stages.

Yet another round of fixes for the VESA support code.

- Express various sizes in bytes, rather than Kbytes, in the video mode and adapter information structures. - Fill 0 in the linear buffer size field if the linear frame buffer is not available. - Remove SW_VESA_USER ioctl. It is still experimetal and was not meant to be released. - Fix missing cast operator. - Correctly handle pointers returned by the VESA BIOS. The pointers may point to the area either in the BIOS ROM or in the buffer supplied by the caller. - Set the destructive cursor at the right moment.

Fix destructive cursor shape after text mode switch.

This is only for standard modes, I don't check vesa modes yet.

Cosmetic change: adjust copyright notice.

Fix and update for VESA BIOS support in syscons.

- Handle pixel (raster text) mode properly. - Clear screen and paint border right. - Paint text attribute (colors). - Fix off-by-one errors. - Add some sanity checks. - Fix some function prototypes. - Add some comment lines. - Define generic text mode numbers so that the user can just give "80x25", "80x60", "132x25"..., rather than "VGA_xxx", to `vidcontrol' to change the current video mode. `vidoio.c' and `vesa.c' will map these numbers to real video mode numbers appropriate and available with the given video hardware. I believe this will be useful to make syscons more portable across archtectures.

Add VESA support to syscons.

Make sure your kernel configuration file has the following line. options "VM86" If you want to statically link the VESA support code to the kernel, add the following option to the kernel configuration file. options "VESA" The vidcontrol command now accepts the following video mode names: VESA_132x25, VESA_132x43, VESA_132x50, VESA_132x60, VESA_800x600 The VESA_800x600 mode is a raster display mode. The 80x25 text will be displayed on the 800x600 screen. Useful for some laptop computers. vidcontrol accepts the new `-i ' option, where must be either `adapter' or `mode'. When the `-i adapter' option is given, vidcontrol will print basic information (not much) on the video adapter. When the `-i mode' option is specified, vidcontrol will list video modes which are actually supported by the video adapter. Submitted by: Kazutaka YOKOTA yokota@FreeBSD.ORG
