But we agreed that having the drivers fallback to the softcursor is the wrong general thing to do since it only works for fbconsole.

You don't need to make the patch, I already made it for you. --=20 Jon Smirl jonsmirl@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
