The patch makes sense for the colour component offsets and masks, but I doubt changing pScrn->bitsPerPixel would work as expected; it should probably just bail if the returned fPtr->var.bits_per_pixel != pScrn->bitsPerPixel. Also, I think at least the colour component bits really belong in FBDevScreenInit() instead of fbdevHWModeInit(), as these values are supposed to be constant during a server generation, but it looks like that might require changes to the fbdevHW interface. Last but not least, this should really be submitted and discussed upstream at http://bugs.freedesktop.org instead of here. > Any suggestions for fixing the "black surround" problem?
