The NetBSD kernel code for this looks pretty reasonable, at least coming from not having a clue what it was before. They certainly have a cursor on, cursor off and cursor setup function in the kernel. Might be worth looking at. > I've added colormap handling to the PMAGB-BA driver, this works fine > now, and I use it regularily.

If only I had a monitor for the PMAGB-B. :) > All of the above needs to be resynced against latest MIPS kernel CVS. > Note that all of this is still for 2.4, I'd like to forward port it > soon, but I'm a bit overloaded ATM. I am certainly not ready to play with 2.5 kernels yet. Especially on somehting this slow at compiling. I should try to find a cross compiler setup for it. Len Sorensen
