  "message": "[PATCH] fbdev: fix switch to KD_TEXT, enhanced version\n\nEvery framebuffer driver relies on the assumption that the set_par()\nfunction of the driver is called before drawing functions and other\nfunctions dependent on the hardware state are executed.\n\nWhenever you switch from X to a framebuffer console for the very first\ntime, there is a chance that a broken X system has _not_ set the mode to\nKD_GRAPHICS, thus the vt and framebuffer code executes a screen redraw and\nseveral other functions before a set_par() is executed.  This is believed\nto be not a bug of linux but a bug of X/xdm.  At least some X releases used\nby SuSE and Debian show this behaviour.\n\nThere was a 2nd case, but that has been fixed by Antonino Daplas on\n10-dec-2005.\n\nThis patch allows drivers to set a flag to inform fbcon_switch() that they\nprefer a set_par() call on every console switch, working around the\nproblems caused by the broken X releases.\n\nThe flag will be used by the next release of cyblafb and might help other\ndrivers that assume a hardware state different to the one used by X.\n\nAs the default behaviour does not change, this patch should be acceptable\nto everybody.\n\nSigned-off-by: Knut Petersen \u003cKnut_Petersen@t-online.de\u003e\nAcked-by: \"Antonino A.
