There is a big thread on lkml right now called radeon-pre-2. Alan Cox
is going to redesign the base fbdev and DRI layers. This includes the
DOSEMU part for reset. I'd attach your issues to the end of that
thread so that Alan can see them.
This is the root of the thread
http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/9/10/206
There are about 100 messages in it. The part about the VGA driver is
at the very end.
