Those patches will enable fbdev apps to run properly. More patches are
needed if you want to support mode switching using the fbdev emulation
layer. I noticed my patches and yours where lost. Who do you send patches
too that can merge them ?

That's accurate enough.
Generally, if nothing has happened in a week, the chances that it's
lost are very high. Resend. If you like, cc me and I'll maintain the
patches
and resend them for you.
You can add Tested-by: Paulius Zaleckas<paulius.zaleckas@xxxxxxxxx>
for http://www.mail-archive.com/dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg44369.html
as this was preventing DirectFB from running on my Asus Eee PC 701.
I tested it as well with the both my 3Dfx driver that I wrote with KMS and
the nouveau driver. We just need to make sure that the patches end up in
the drm-next tree or these patches will be lost when drm-next gets merged
to linus tree.
IMHO this patch should end up in current (2.6.32) kernel and we should
send it to stable ML.
