Subject: [PATCH] tdfxfb: fix for background used in fbcon_clear
Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2003 01:43:27 +0200	[thread overview]

Hello,

This time I checked recent linux-fbdev-devel archives - and didn't see
any patch for this issue. So here is my fix.

There was wrong color used in fillrect in 16/24/32bpp (pseudo_palette
mapping was omitted), which resulted in ugly black (well, almost black)
rectangles painted when some "clear" terminal command was sent (like
"^[[J", "^[[K") with background colour different than black.
It was visible e.g. in mc's View.


BTW, if I use 800x600 framebuffer (i.e. 100x37.5 charasters) the
remaining half line at the bottom sometimes changes colour from black
to some other (used as background in last "clear" command).
Shouldn't margins always be black?
Background of last erase character is definitely not what we want...

I changed "region.color = attr_bgcol_ec(bgshift, vc);" to
"region.color = 0;" in accel_clear_margins()
(linux/drivers/video/console/fbcon.c:505) - it fixed this issue and
I can't see any side-effects.

This fixes background used for "clear" terminal commands (^[[J, ^[[K etc.)
in 16/24/32bpp modes.
