Subject: [PATCH 1/2] staging/vboxvideo: Don't set FBINFO_MISC_ALWAYS_SETPAR
Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2019 11:27:54 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190115102755.16183-1-daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> (raw)
It's a debug hack flag useful to work around driver bugs. That's not a
good idea for a new driver. Especially for a new drm driver.
Aside: the fbdev support should probably be converted over to the new
generic fbdev support.
