Re: Issues with radeonfb (new) in widescreen displays

[biatx@portugalmail.com]

When I run "stty -F /dev/tty7 cols 80 rows 30" the problem seems gone and
radeonfb acts perfect...hope you can fix it definitively then.

Thank you a lot

 A workaround which may or may not work is to set the tty where X is located
 to a different size as compared to the tty's where your console is mapped.
 
 So if X is in /dev/tty7, you can do something like this:
 
 stty -F /dev/tty7 cols 80 rows 30
 
 (Use the latest BK or mm release.  stty will fail in 2.6.7)
 
 The above will set tty7 to 640x480.  This way, when you switch to any of 
 your consoles (assuming they are not in 640x480), the framebuffer console
 will "reinitialize" the hardware. 
 
 A more definitive fix is in the works.
