Resurrect Intel740 driver: i740fb
PATCH v3 1/1 Resurrect Intel740 driver: i740fb
Hello,
this is an v3 attempt to resurrect an old (like 2.4.19) out-of-tree driver for Intel740 graphics cards and modify it for recent kernels. The old driver is located at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/i740fbdev/files/
It was easier to create a new driver based on skeletonfb, using most of the low level HW code from the old driver. The DDC code is completely new.
The driver was tested on two 8MB cards: Protac AG240D and Diamond Stealth II G460.
Changes in v3:
- added suspend/resume support
- fixed x panning
