Subject: linux 2.6.26 vt back_color_erase
Date: Fri, 3 Oct 2008 12:11:47 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081003081147.GA16414@night.netis.ru> (raw)

Hello!

Current linux kernel has broken bce semantics. Now insert_line and
delete_line clear the new lines with default color and not with the current
background as they should, and what is expected by ncurses.

vc->vc_scrl_erase_char was introduced in 2.6.26 for some reason. I beleave
this change should be backed out.
