Subject: [PATCH] nvidiafb: Fix bug in nvidiafb_pan_display
Date: Sat, 12 Nov 2005 07:28:31 +0800	[thread overview]

nvidiafb_pan_display() is incorrectly using the fields in
info->var instead of var passed to the function.

Looks like a bug in nvidiafb_pan_display() which was revealed when I
changed the semantics of update_var/update_start.

Try this patch.
