Hi folks...
Well, while waiting for a 1.1 pre-release to build on my hp300, I decided
to look into why screenblank(8) and Xsun don't blank my 4/260's bwtwo. I
was wondering if the mouse, et. al. were reporting constant activity, but
that's not the case...
It turns out that FBIOSVIDEO isn't doing anything on my system:
case FBIOSVIDEO:
if (*(int *)data)
sc->sc_reg->bw_ctl |= CTL_VE;
else
sc->sc_reg->bw_ctl &= ~CTL_VE;
break;
That bit, CTL_VE (0x40 in the bw_ctl register) doesn't seem to have any
effect. Now, I'm wondering, are my bwtwo registers a) being mapped
incorrectly, or b) "different"? If they're being mapped incorrectly, I
wonder what I'm frobbing?
Ideas, anyone?
