------- Comment #16 from ms@xxxxxxxxxx  2006-11-30 14:25 MST -------
1) Stefan if you are wondering why DefaultDepth is set why don't you tell
   it earlier ? DefaultDepth is ALWAYS set since years and it never was
   a problem not for fbdev and any other driver

2) Klaus if you don't change the color depth in your fbdev setup nothing
   serious happens. So how can this be a major problem ? If you change
   your bootloader to use the another than 16bit colordepth you could run
   into the same issue with fbdev X configuration. A major pane is the
   driver not the configuration

3) The hell why do I have to take care for broken fbdev implementations ?
   This is a nightmare even worse on ppc. If fbdev would work as it did
   some time before, DefaultDepth wouldn't make any difference. Why do you
   introduce a fbdev based setup on many cards without appropriate tests
   to the driver. Fix this damn driver and we can get rid of all nasty
   hacks without appropriate tests to the driver ?

It's far to late to waste time with that driver crap, will go to bed now
