Subject: [PATCH] x86: fix usage of bios intcall()
Date: Wed, 1 Jul 2009 11:13:07 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090701021307.GA3127@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
Some intcall() misuses the input biosregs as output in
cf06de7b9cdd3efee7a59dced1977b3c21d43732
This fixes the problem vga=ask boot option doesn't show enough modes.
