This grows graphics mem to 16M per artec's recommendation.
You mean 32MB? The comment says "Video RAM has to be in 2MB chunks", so either 16M is wrong, or the comment is wrong (?)
The patch is fine otherwise, but I cannot test...
I will reword that comment. I think the meaning is lost in translation?
Video RAM has to be in mulitples of 2 MB
Ah, yes, makes sense then.
Acked-by: Uwe Hermann uwe@hermann-uwe.de
with the updated comment.
What comment would you suggest? Ron never worded it out here.
But to me the existing comment is quite clear. It has to be an even number of megabytes by my understanding- it goes by 2MB granularity, you can assign 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 and so on megabytes for video memory because in the registry meaning it increases in steps of 2MB, iirc.
As I did the equivalent changes to DBE61 some months ago when I was making it boot linux in coreboot-v3, I can commit this soon myself too with the provided Acks.
So I suggest the following comment:
"Video RAM has to be in a 2MB granularity"
