Certainly - 640x...@1bit isn't much. Even less than sthigh IIRC. I wonder why it does depend on FastRAM size, though. ST-RAM eaten up by page tables? BTW: browsing Geert's git tree online, I noticed that my old patch to reserve some of ST-RAM for use by atafb etc. has never made it into git. I'll clean that up and resubmit unless Geert has objections. See: http://marc.info/?l=linux-m68k&m=124072556805722&w=2 The amount of ST-RAM reserved is hardcoded and might need to be increased.
