[patch 24/39] [PATCH] gbefb: Set default of FB_GBE_MEM to 4 MB

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------

Allocating more than 4 MB memory for the GBE (SGI O2) framebuffer completely
breakfs gbefb support at the moment.  According to comments on #mipslinux,
more than 4 MB has never worked correctly in Linux.  Therefore, the default
should be 4 MB.
