Public bug reported:
The UBUNTU SAUCE patches that add module support to vesafb make the
"mtrr" module parameter "bool". This only allows the values 0 and 1,
thus no MTRR entries or "uncachable" MTRR entries. To enable write-
combining (or write-back) MTRR entries, the "mtrr" module parameter
should be "uint" (or "int").
I'll attach two patches, the first makes the described modification, the
second one additionally makes write-combining MTRR entries the default.
(Just as it already is for e.g. uvesafb.)
Kind regards,
Thomas
