PATCH 1/1 radeonfb fix

Hi,

The following patch is necessary to get the 2.6 radeonfb driver to detect the flatpanel display. I believe the 2.4 code does exactly the same thing.

===== drivers/video/radeonfb.c 1.32 vs edited =====

Could you verify that the "new" radeonfb driver in my tree works fine for you ? I rewrote significant parts of this driver, I expect to have it merged upstream soon now.

It works indeed.
