hi,

the attached patch fixes the screen corruption issues which were reported by others, see:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/13543
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/13409

The bug is kvm specific and can only be observed in graphics mode using relatively high resolutions (when one line uses more than one page of memory). As far as I've seen this bug is around since commit dd9591e0fea25a1414f4a6b2faa61ed733e0acc6 (5 nov 2006).

I've attached two versions of the patch. One just changes the relevant line and the other one also cleans up formatting (indention) of the kvm specific code.

cheers,
Andi
