Better screen drawing kernel patch

2006-11-27 Thread jollen
Hi all, I put on a patch for s3c2410 SOC which make the mobile panel going better. The original codes from MIZI were not considered 24-bpp/32-bpp fb/fb-con support and were not given good pulse/porch values for this panel. Posts and files can be found on my 2410's blog now,
