Another Updated Patch:
So far I have heard of problems when using a lcd connected to the vga port and when switching from X to back to the console. I was able to replicate problems and address them with this patch.
For the lcd issues, the left side of the screen was distorted and cropped. This was a timing problem from using incorrect modes. My crt was able to function correctly with these modes. There were two issues with the mode table. When creating the patch I copied the original seabios table instead of the geodelx modified table. Then even with the correct geodelx table, the seabios table is still addressed at compile time. The geodelx-v3 patch includes the modified table, while the geodelx-modehack patch is a temporary quick fix to address the right table.
Hi Chris,
As before, the main seabios patch looks good to me. The "modehack" patch, of course, needs to be cleaned up before committing. Are you still working on this?
